I remember when Brittney was born in a flurry of activity. Sherry thought that Julie was trying to get out of doing homework and she actually was in labor! When Brittney finally arrived on Earth, we all loved her that very second. She grew in the loving embrace of a devoted and loving family and became a kind and amazing young woman. Then, Ava arrived on Earth and we all loved her that very second. An extension of her mother with a spark all her own. I feel blessed to have known Brittney and to have her in our family for the short time she was here. But, I feel comforted that she is with all the great-grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who have Brittney in a warm and wonderful place. The rest of us, here on Earth, will have her forever in our hearts.
