Heart Walk - Saturday, March 17

LINDSEY'S TEAM

What a wonderful group of friends and family came to honor Lindsey and support us for the Heart Walk. Lindsey's Team has raised over $13,000. Combine Lindsey's team efforts with Jason's company TCI and we are almost to the $20,000 mark. Thanks again to all who came and walked and to all those who were there in spirit. Lindsey's love for others was demonstrated through her friends and family. We love you Lindsey, you are deeply missed!


Walking over Liberty Bridge to the start of the walk.

Cadence, ready to walk in memory of her best friend.




The blue ballons had a picture of Lindsey with the writing

"Our Hearts Walk For Lindsey"




This sign read "I'm walking in tribute to Lindsey Boehm" then I put "Lindsey's Mom" with the verse Ps 73:26 "My heart may fail and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart, He is mine forever."

The Strength To Keep Going

To be honest it has been hard to write at all. My own personal journals are sitting untouched right now. At times it is just too painful to write the words that you know are true. I have been told that I am expecting too much from myself and that I need to step back and thank God for the one or two things each day that I am able to accomplish. Plain and simple, grief is exhausting.

Cadence and I have been enjoying a new Hermie cd that has all scripture songs about not being afraid. Today one of the verses was talking about trusting in God and Cadence asked me if I trusted in God, because she said that she did. God is using her to remind me of truth. I am praising the Lord with Hermie! =) (for those of you who don't know who Hermie is, he is a green caterpiller, a character by Max Lucado) I love the cd for Cadence because she goes around the house quoting scripture and it keeps playing in my mind as well.


HEART WALK UPDATE.....
For those of you who would still like to join us on Saturday, March 17 you do not have to pay or buy anything to walk. The walk is at Falls Park downtown Greenville. The walk starts at 10am, but you will want to come early to park and find our group. Lindsey's Team has raised almost $5,000. We have 75 people walking with us so far.
