Be thankful

Yesterday we received some very sad news. A guy Chris works with was killed in a head on car collision, while on his day off. His wife happens to be our hairdresser. She is 7 months pregnant with their first child. When things like this happen it makes you stop and look at your own life and appreciate what you have..............................
