Today, December 3rd is the  the day after the 4th anniversary of our daughter’s murder.  Yesterday was an extremely hard day for our family.  We wanted to celebrate Morgan’s wondrous life and not her tragic murder.  I was beside myself because I just did not know what to do.  My physical and emotional body wanted to crawl in a hole and morn, but my spiritual body wanted to do something that Morgan would have wanted us to do.

Because we have been blessed with such an amazing and supportive family an idea was born and we fulfilled that idea…we went to the beach at sundown, wrote in the sand, lit candles and thought about Morgan.  Then the magic began…during the beautiful one-of-a-kind sunset, a seal swam up to us, birds flocked over the water, sail boats stopped just under the setting sun, the Goodyear blimp flew by, the candles all stayed lit and as I sat in wonder chills ran up my spine.  I know those chills were a sign from Morgan that she was right there with us and she was seeing the same things we were being shown.  She was happy – this sent a warm happy feeling throughout my body. 

There are no words to explain how grateful I am to everyone across the world that burned candles in memory of Morgan last night.  I know she felt the love, as did Steve & I.  Thank you all so very much.  The fight for justice continues on today and will not stop until it is realized.  Changes will be made – because of the power of the people.  Love always creates change.
