You continue to live in our hearts, Amy, and you always will!

Yesterday morning, my friend Amy passed away.
I am still at a loss for words. Everything I write just seems hollow and doesn't really express what I feel. 

I am still in shock, I guess, and the news hasn't really sunk in yet. Amy was such an amazing person; I just cannot imagine her not being here anymore. 
I tried to distract myself today by talking as much as I haven't talked in my whole life (about totally banal subjects), by starting to clean my room at 6am, by reorganizing every single drawer, by making random plans and running around doing errands; but nothing helped. Amy is always on my mind. I will miss her terribly, as will so many others. 
My husband and I talked about the outpouring of love seen on her Facebook page during the last weeks and especially days. I hope Amy was able to read everyone's comments and knew that she was loved and will be deeply missed. Please keep praying for her, her family and friends. 


I would like to encourage you to read the following blog posts, composed so much more eloquently and beautifully; every single one was written for and in memory of Amy.
