7 years ago today here is what I wrote about that day on my timeline:\u00a0https:\/\/morgansstalking.com\/?p=2446<\/a><\/p>\n

Morgan was scared and wanted protection. She asked her dad if he would buy her a knife. This is a picture Morgan took of the box (with a knife inside of it) that Steve bought for her, at her request, on the drive home from Grand Junction, CO. This box, with the knife still inside of it, was found in her bed, next to her body when we found her on Friday morning, December 2, 2011.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

My heart is breaking today – I just want to crawl into a hole and cry all by myself…and at the same time my whole body is vibrating with excitement…why? I feel like a voice from somewhere is telling me it is finally time…it has been almost 7 years now, but justice is coming very soon. This sounds strange after all these years, but I really do trust that voice – it has never been wrong before so please cross your fingers, pray and light a candle on Sunday for Morgan…#JusticeForMorgan!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Morgan loved listening to Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, especially their song: “Home is whenever I’m with you” \"\"<3\u00a0https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LQszMRGgSrM&fbclid=IwAR1E4qY6CO5j7xR3C-RzNy8yDnNTciYqETPRj-oLWp6mYnHmHSgMeOhR-0U<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Lyrics<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
Alabama, Arkansas
\nI do love my ma and pa
\nNot that way that I do love you<\/div>\n
Holy moley, me oh my
\nYou’re the apple of my eye
\nGirl, I’ve never loved one like you<\/div>\n
Man, oh man, you’re my best friend
\nI scream it to the nothingness
\nThere ain’t nothing that I need<\/div>\n
Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie
\nChocolate candy, Jesus Christ
\nAin’t nothing please me more than you<\/div>\n
Ah, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you
\nAh, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you<\/div>\n
La, la, la, la, take me home
\nMommy, I’m coming home<\/div>\n
I’ll follow you into the park
\nThrough the jungle, through the dark
\nGirl, I never loved one like you<\/div>\n
Moats and boats and waterfalls
\nAlleyways and pay phone calls
\nI’ve been everywhere with you<\/div>\n
That’s true, laugh until we think we’ll die
\nBarefoot on a summer night
\nNever could be sweeter than with you<\/div>\n
And in the streets you run a-free
\nLike it’s only you and me
\nGeez, you’re something to see<\/div>\n
Ah, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you
\nAh, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you<\/div>\n
La, la, la, la, take me home
\nDaddy, I’m coming home<\/div>\n
Jade Alexander, do you remember that day you fell out of my window?
\nI sure do, you came jumping out after me
\nWell, you fell on the concrete, nearly broke your ass,
\nYou were bleeding all over the place and I rushed you out to the hospital, you remember that?
\nYes, I do, well, there’s something I never told you about that night
\nWhat didn’t you tell me?
\nWhile you were sitting in the backseat smoking a cigarette you thought was going to be your last,
\nI was falling deep, deeply in love with you, and I never told you until just now<\/div>\n
Ah, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you
\nAh, home, let me go home
\nHome is where I’m alone with you<\/div>\n
Home, let me come home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you<\/div>\n
Ah, home, yes I am home
\nHome is when I’m alone with you<\/div>\n
Alabama, Arkansas
\nI do love my ma and pa
\nMoats and boats and waterfalls
\nAlleyways and pay phone calls<\/div>\n
Ah, home, let me go home
\nHome is wherever I’m with you
\nAh, home, let me go home
\nHome is where I’m alone with you<\/div>\n
