My thoughts are up north

Last Saturday while we were all in the midst of celebrating one of my best friends from high school, Natalie Licht, lost a nephew. Barron Christian Battles (Magdalene's Licht Battles son) passed away after just 8 weeks. I never met him but I did read some of the blog posts his mother wrote during his life.

He was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy and it was only a matter of time before his body gave up on him. He looked like such a sweet little child and I know that the families are really missing him.

Today was his funeral and I just mention him on here. November 6th will always be a special day in my life and unfortunately will be for the Licht and Battles families also. I just hope they can look at the joy Barron brought them and be grateful for it. So therefore my thoughts are up north today so that the families can feel the love from all around.
