They were at church on Mother's Day. How big the girls have gotten, and how much of Kari I saw in them both. I saw so much love from Jim and Linda toward the girls. No matter what they are being taught from their father, I saw that kari's girls had love for their grandparents. I praised God for this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489449106311175918.post-44195162923391586642009-05-10T13:53:00.001-05:002009-05-10T13:53:00.001-05:00Kari was such an incredible and beautiful person. ...Kari was such an incredible and beautiful person. Jenny couldn't have written it better. She inspired so many people throughout her life. Because of Kari, I am a better person. I had always hoped I could be half the mother she was was. I wanted my girls to love me as much as her girls loved her. And they did. Kensi and Grace love their mother so much. Kari was the rock in her family! And with Kari gone, the girls have crumbled. But when we are able to bring them back to our family, they will know how much they are loved and just how much their mother loved them!<br /><br />Kari, on this Mother's Day, I miss you and love you so much! I wish you were here to celebrate this day with all of us!<br /><br />RyannRyannnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489449106311175918.post-47432718245720685402009-05-09T14:28:00.000-05:002009-05-09T14:28:00.000-05:00I know this is about Kari but I wanted to say some...I know this is about Kari but I wanted to say something to Linda. <br /><br />Thank you so much Linda for being such a great Mom to Kari and grandmother to her girls. Thank you for showing us that the bonds between a mother and a child are not bound by life or death. Thank you for showing us that even a broken heart can still love with abandon, mother your child, and seek what is right and just despite all obstacles. You have become one of my heros. You are a pillar of love and grace that stands firmly planted in God's love and shines His light through the darkness of this evil storm. You have given so much and asked for so little. Your faith in God and his love for you beam from your face even when it twisted in pain and tear stained. Thank you for not letting this grief outshine the blessing that Kari was and is. You are the perfect balance of grace and grit. I hope with all my heart that God will give you an extra measure of his peace this Mother's Day and that He will grant the wishes your heart holds for all of your children. Happy Mothers Day sweet Linda!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489449106311175918.post-68156997418481670642009-05-08T10:26:00.000-05:002009-05-08T10:26:00.000-05:00Although it is bittersweet, it's so wonderful to r...Although it is bittersweet, it's so wonderful to read what a special woman Kari was. I knew her when she was a little girl (babysat for her occasionally)and she was just as precious then as everyone says she was as an adult. Linda, I will be thinking of you this Mother's Day and praying for you and your wonderful family. <br /><br />Love to you all,<br />Julie from Ark.Julienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489449106311175918.post-38413977577965801592009-05-05T21:48:00.000-05:002009-05-05T21:48:00.000-05:00Jenny,

God layed this on your heart for my Mother's Day gift :)...<br /><br />Kari was an incredible woman...daughter....mother...sister...friend...teacher....etc. I will save this and share it with Kensi and Grace one day when they are FREE to love their mother without feeling guilty. Kari loved Kensi and Grace more than anything. The week before her death, Kari talked at length with me about spending <br />"mother-daughter alone" time with Kensi so that that her oldest would know just how special she was. <br /><br />And Kari loved you very much, Jenny. Jim and I love you very much, too....you are part of our family....always will be :). Thank you for loving my daughter and granddaughters. <br />LindaLindanoreply@blogger.com
