Today I was interviewed for the Bryan-College Station local news as part of a piece they ran tonight on distracted driving. Although recounting our story was difficult, God has given me incredible strength this week. I feel a great sense of purpose when I tell our story as a way to help raise awareness to stop distracted driving. As I wrote in a previous entry, I have been praying daily for strength, serenity, patience and purpose, and God is faithfully answering my prayers.
The reporter who wrote the story is one of the anchors - Meredith Stancik. She did a fantastic job, and the result is a moving, compelling story that I know will have a positive impact on our community. I sincerely appreciate her taking an interest in our family and this issue. You can click the link below to read the full-text, and watch the video clip that was shown at 10 pm on KBTX.

I thank God for the opportunities He is presenting for our family to help raise awareness of the dangers of distracted driving. I know that He is using our story to save lives, and to save other families from the pain and loss we have experienced. As I say in the interview, I miss Chris, more than words could ever express, but I just keep loving him - and I know that he is with us.
