It was just a week ago that Mark was sitting on top of the world, calling me from the golf course and having a grand day.
What a difference a week makes I guess because today I got the call. "I need you here Carrie Ellen, I know it's the holidays but I can't do this without you here". My heart sank, my throat tightened and the biggest tears welled in my eyes - and thru the lump in my throat the size of Texas I said "OK". Thankfully he then said - "just start getting ready please, the kids are coming and mom and dad, and then I want you, can you plan on that, please?" The part of that I will never forget is the "please" at the end - did he REALLY feel that he had to ask me "please?" I'll always remember the please, I hope he will always remember the "yes".
About Me
- Carrie Guerra
- One of my favorite lines in Alice In Wonderland is "and WHO are You?" That is a great question to which I would have to answer -I am a mother, a wife, a sister and auntie, an accountant, runner, friend, cook, consumer, reader, photographer, and daughter. I live in the life of a farming family, I love to travel.... too many things to try to pick just one and I would never want to try, these are the things in life that make me tick. I am who I am, you get what you get, and I love my life. In other words... "It is what it is".
