Last night my cousin Mikey died. I will never forget how excited he was to have coffee after Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner at my parents house. It's one of those defining aspects of family holidays growing up for me.
This is a beautiful song from a CD my dad sent me that makes me cry thinking about my mom opening her eyes in heaven. I don't know all that much about heaven, being on this side of it, but I hope that my mom and grandmother were there to welcome Mikey in when he opened his eyes. It's the one bright side of yet another one of my family members being there. - It's Alright by Brandon Heath
