Very Sad, But Worth The Education!

I found this story through another blog, and though it made me cry I wanted to share. This is an excerpt from a woman's blog who lost her daughter to a tragic car accident, but it wasn't a crash. The girl got stuck in a hot car and could not get out. I urge all parents to read because what happened to this little girl could happen to any kid, and I for one never thought about it. To learn more you can visit her blog through this link www.avasrule.com. Here is the story from her blog:

" 'This is a very hard post to write but I feel I owe it to the hundreds of people who have shown support to our family throughout the World over the last two weeks.

On Saturday the 3rd of February, on a very “normal”day in our normal, happy life, our World was shattered. In short, our beautiful daughter Ava got into our car which was, unusually, parked in full sun in the middle of the day. She had been with Grandad who lives next door (we have one wall around both properties) and said she was returning to my house but in fact went searching for something in the car. We always lock it. Just not that day. Once she got in she shut the door and was not able to find her way back out. Over come by the heat, she quickly fell asleep and when she was found, 30 minutes later, it was too late.

Our princess fought so bravely for two days in ICU but on Monday the 5th of February, she flew to Heaven.

Words can never express the pain in our heart or the void we feel. It makes no sense but we are so grateful to have had her for three years and we will continue to work very hard to provide our other three children a wonderful childhood filled with happy memories.

Ava, my amazing, sweet, clever Super Princess..I miss you with every ounce of my being. I love you to the moon and back.' "
