My Aunt Sophie died yesterday morning. Lastnight while I was trying to write nice thing about her the power went out.....A message from her I imagine. She was 99 and had a long and lovely life. She had recently said she would like to live to be 100, her birthday being in October. I guess she was needed else where. Yesterday morning was a sweet and gentle sunrise, at the time she was being greeted by a higher power.

Dear MaryBeth,
I am sorry to intrude uninvited, tho, I believe there are no accidents...like how I got here
or why your power popped...
We are so left on the underside of God's workings in a day... My faith leads me to believe you received a greater reward in that moment just praying about her then finding words to compose.

I am sorry for your loss. You have a created a wonderful home.
