“I turned out the lights and laid my head on the pillow. Somewhere you were laughing...I could hear it in my mind and the tears that I had managed to hold for the day found refuge in the same old pillow and I said the same prayers for you and dreamed the same dreams for you and knew silently that I'd do it a thousand times over.~Kendra Day Crockett”
