Today was the saddest day of my whole life. My dining room table is filled with flowers and my house is now filled with the biggest void you could imagine. I will never understand why these things happen. I can analyze, I can ponder. I can be angry, I can be bitter or I can choose joy. I tell our kids that our days work out only in the way that we choose them to be. For Lucas, I am going to remember to seek out the beauty in everything I can and I am going to choose joy. I know that is what he would want for me, and for all of us. Today we laid to rest my best friend, my sweet Lucas…he was and forever will be -everyone’s favorite-
