3958 - Laura Johnson (Cole's mom)
Monday, November 19, 2007 23:03

Cole and I were watching old videos today, and we came across the video of the kids in Mrs. Dauster's class at their Christmas party reciting what they had memorized and acting out the nativity. Sydney looked so beautiful - she was having such a good time. If you don't have that video and would like a copy, just let me know.

I also wanted to share this little story with you. After the funeral, we had Jake Bryans over to play. We talked a little about the funeral and then they were talking about football and other sports. A few minutes later, we got back to Sydney. Jake told us how he and Sydney were old friends and had been friends since they were real little. The boys got real quiet, and Jake finally said "It's really hard losing a good friend." It wasn't profound, but was really sweet to hear from a tough guy.

I can't even imagine how difficult the holidays will be for your family. I will be praying for you all.

What a beautiful angel she was here on earth. I know God rejoices at having her at his side and free of pain. I love you and my prayers continue to be with you.

Dear James & Lynette,
I just wanted to send a quick note to let you know I think and pray for you, your precious boys along with all your family and all those who love Sydney so much. I have be honest with you over the last 6-8 months our family has been struggling with some issues that at times caused me to question or doubt my faith. By reading Sydney's web site and each of your entries and prayers through your struggle somehow renewed my faith in Christ and what he can & will do in the life of me and my family. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for the peace and faith you have helped restore in me. I will continue to pray for each of you each day. I lost my youngest brother when he was only 16 and I know the holidays can be one of the most difficult to endure, especially the first ones. Please be assured you have so much love surrounding you and my hope for you is that somehow knowing that brings you some comfort and peace.
Love, Donna

We continue to pray for all of you. We love you,
Lamar and David

I think of you often and keep you in my prayers.
Love,
Francoise

You are in my daily prayers often. I pray for you when I see a mother or father with a young daughter, I pray for you as I fix a meal for my family, I pray for you late at night and early in the morning, I pray for you in every setting that conjures up a moment that I imagine might be painful daily reminders in your own life of Sydney's absence. My prayers always include the hope that you would be comforted at all times and know that God and others do not forget you. I move through my life and pray that you will be able to find joy in every day--that gradually your hurts will be replaced with happiness and good memories. As I move through the Thanksgiving season please know that you will all be remembered with fondness and I will thank God for your family and the wonderful ministry you have selflessly offered to others through your own pain. Blessings to you today, at Thanksgiving, and always.
Love,
Mary Interrante

Just a little note to say we are thinking of you and remembering Sydney today, as always.

I am a friend of Marcee and Grant and have heard about your journey. I go to DTS and I remember they prayed for her last year during chapel. Thank you for sharing your walk with others with such honesty.

Melissa MacDonald, who is in my small group in B.S.F. SHARED YOUR STORY briefly with me today.I also lost an 8yr. old daughter may 30,2003 in a terrible car accident on the way to our lakehouse. our other two children were with me too, but survived with minor injuries.My daughter Elizabeth was careflighted to Children,s where she survived for a very short time.My husband and both of our parents were with her when she died, although she was not at all concious.My other daughter and my son were taken to the Tyler Hospital with me, so I was not with Elizabeth when she died which will always be hard.we have had another child, grace who is almost 3. I was touched by your entries and I understand. God's grace and infinite love sustain us each day. Sydney and Elizabeth are both with their precious Savior where we will also be soon, when our work here is done. Love to your family, Katherine Worsham

Thinking of you everyday.
Hoping each day gets a bit easier for you---
Bubba sends his love & prayers to you all.

I felt that I needed to sign this guestbook when all I was going to do was visit this web-site and have a look around. I came to this web-site because of a wonderful woman I had the pleasure to meet today. She shared a beatiful and wonderful spirit with me. The look in her eyes and the way she spoke about Sydney, touched me in such a way. It sounds like that was Sydney as before, she had a way of touching people! I'm so sorry if I am out of line but I would like to send all of you my heart felt prayers of healing and God bless you all! By the way this woman that I met today was Mrs. Myna Young. And can you tell her "thank you for sharing"! God Bless
