Bonnie

I don't even know what to say. I should probably write something really deep and meaningful about Bonnie and what an incredible, sweet, amazing, loving, strong woman she was- because she was all that, and a million other things!!  But, I'm still in such disbelief that she is actually gone. I'm still so mad that this happened to her and our little family. I'm just so overwhelmed with sadness and wanting for her.
Words can not express how much we will miss you Bonnie. We will always "love you as BIG as the sun"

This is a quote by Elder Uchtdorf, from this last April conference. I'm not sure if this is the type of situation he was meaning for it to be, but it has given me a lot of comfort in the last few months.

"The more we learn about the gospel of Jesus Christ, the more we realize that endings here in mortality are not endings at all. They are merely interruptions—temporary pauses that one day will seem small compared to the eternal joy awaiting the faithful.

How grateful I am to my Heavenly Father that in His plan there are no true endings, only everlasting beginnings."

The funeral was absolutley amazing. Bonnie basically wrote all of it, so obviously it was perfection. It was so inspiring and motivational! A little weird to say about a funeral, but she really makes me want to be a better person. Everyone who knew her was changed for the better. She helped, inspired, taught, and loved every person she came in contact with. I'm so grateful to know that our family can be together forever and we will be with our sweet mom again.
