Sadness

Hi dear friends,

This morning, it breaks my heart to say, a friend of ours passed away. Mikko, a sweet man, father and husband to one of my very best friends lost his struggle with cancer. He was 35 years old.

My heart is heavy with sadness for this family.

I will continue TTF parties and I will probably schedule a few reruns here at TTF. But, I am taking some time away from blogging to be available for my friend and to come to terms with this loss. 

I feel the need for some inner reflection of my own.

I won’t be linking to any parties or responding to comments. I just need to step away for a little while.

I hope you will join me and say a prayer for my friend Nicole and her two young daughters.

Thank you everyone.

  15. I am so sorry for the loss of your friend and for his family. Times like this -- you must get your priorities in order, and I have to say that blogging is probably on the bottom of the list. I think you have it right.
