I have been thinking for a while about a new post. I've had so many things to write about, but never took the time to do so. Then, this Wednesday happened. Our little niece Elena Nicole was hit by a car in a horrible accident and we lost her that evening. I don't think that I can express what a wonderful child she was! She was loving and kind. It breaks my heart that she is gone! I really wish I could tell more about her, but I really don't think I can at this time. I am already sobbing as I write this. So, instead, I am attaching some pictures that I quickly found while skimming through my pictures on the computer. I'm sorry they are not in order. I'm having difficulties figuring out the new blogger. :(
