She holds a place

Wyatt is sleeping. Darin is working. She is running around town...embracing final conversations and hugs with those she holds dear. Who is she? She is my Katy J. I have my Pandora station set on Bethany Joy Galeoti with Kate Voegele currently playing. In the mailbox sits the 2nd disc of the 1st season of One Tree Hill. The door to her room is mostly closed but as I take trips up stairs to clean house, I can see that pieces of her still fill the bookshelves and dressers. Until tomorrow.

In the last 3 weeks, it has been my JOY to experience her presence, to laugh, cry, share wine, engage in stories, roll eyes at ridiculous "reality TV shows", talk about movies, cook, eat, share beer...to experience K in person! I am thankful that she asked to stay with us during this time of transition for her and her family and I am acutely aware that she holds a place in these 3 Cabell's hearts...more than I think we can express.

I will hold these memories close to my heart and cherish them for a lifetime. You will be MISSED. We love you, K!
