Remembering Julie Frame

I don't know if you'll have time to watch this video. But I love it and wanted to include it.

Today my friend, Julie Frame, lost her battle with cancer. She was the computer teacher at my school, Gunstream Elementary. (At Stefani's and my school. Sorry, Stefani. In fact, it was Stefani that told me she was sick, and because of that phone call from her, I was able to call Julie and talk to her and tell her that I love her. So thank you!)

In 2010, she was a recipient of KLTY's Christmas wish. Over 400 students wrote letters telling this radio station about Julie's sickness and how she came to school with a smile on her face every day.

This video makes me tear up. For lots of reasons.

~I love Julie. I had her son, Adam, when he was a 2nd grader. I really got to see firsthand what a sweet person and Mom she is.

~I love Gunstream. I miss my school.

~I love that 400 kids would write letter about Julie. I love that the kids said that they were praying for her and at the end of the video they all shout, "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Don't tell me that you have to be in a private school to be around people who love Jesus. Just teach in the Bible Belt. ;)

I think it's such a heartwarming video. I hope, if you choose to watch it, that you love it too.

I hate cancer. It seems to steal so much time away from people. I hate that she had to battle it without the support of a loving husband. But I'm proud of her teenaged boys for taking such good care of her.

She loved Jesus with everything that she had, and I don't question for a second where she is right now. It's just always hard to say goodbye to someone.
