Why Kaitlyn....
This is a question that I get asked everyday by one of her friends -- why Kaitlyn -- why not someone else --
I always new that I believed in God -- but nothing has tested my faith and confirmed it more than losing my precious Kaitlyn. God had bigger plans for her -- her job here on earth was done.
A couple of days before Kaitlyn died her and I were talking -- I always told her that my biggest fear was coming home to find her dead -- that I would never see her again -- She ALWAYS came back with -- MOM -- God new me before I was born and when I was born he knew when I was going to die. He has it written in a book :) This is what she believed -- and so do I -- I am so thankful that we had this talk --because while the pain is still great -- I am at peace knowing my beautiful Kaitlyn is with God.
A couple of weeks ago I was on message board -- I was having a VERY bad day and one of the responses led me to PSALM 139. Being brought up Catholic I was not familiar with PSALM 139 so I went to look for it.
Here is just a small exerpt:
13 For you formed my inward parts;you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. [1]Wonderful are your works;my soul knows it very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you,when I was being made in secret,intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance;in your book were written, every one of them,the days that were formed for me,when as yet there were none of them
I got it Kaitlyn -- heard you loud and clear.
Why Kaitlyn -- because it was her time.

More than anything, I wish I could take your pain away.
That girl kept me from turning into an old lady..."Tatante, you're wearing THAT?? You look kinda mamaw!"
What a honor it was to be her Nanan. Thank you for that.
I feel your sadness and I wish I could take it away.
