Wild about Harry

On Saturday when I was going through boxes that have been stored, and throwing things away that we don’t need anymore, I came across the VHS recording of Princess Diana’s funeral.

If you read my previous post, Tracking with the royals, you will know how I identified with Diana and how sad I felt when she died.

After it got too, hot, I locked up the house and brought in some documents to shred in the cool. I flipped around on the TV to find something to watch while I shredded and happened upon “Wild About Prince Harry” on TLC.

Prince Harry was 12 when his mother died in the tragic car accident. The show talked about how devastated Harry was, as any child would be, to have his mother taken from him at his age, so unexpectedly.

I cried. I felt sad for that little boy then and I still feel sad for him knowing that he can never again speak to the mother that he loved so much.

The Bible tells us that we are not promised tomorrow. Tragic accidents happen every day, to people from all walks of life.

We shouldn’t take for granted the fact that our loved ones are here with us right now. Be sure they know you love them. Every day. Always.

Brandon and Geoff, I am so happy that I’m your mom. I love you, Vanessa and Nikki more than words can say.
