Every time I hear your name,
I know my life will never be the same.
As I sit alone in your room,
The laughter fades to sadness and gloom.
Though I feel you within my veins,
I still can't deny, I carry a dreaded pain.
What about Andrew, the love of your life?
I swore one day I thought you'd be his wife.
So many pictures overcrowd your room,
It seems as though you'll be home soon.
It was not supposed to happen, not this way,
I have to take it slow, each day by day.
I know you wouldn't want me to cry,
You'd know what to say, I wish you were alive.
You could answer all my questions, all with just your voice,
You left so soon, you didn't have a choice.
Who's left to keep Corinne in line?
You could tell her the words to make everything fine.
When she has kids what's she supposed to say?
You'll see your Aunt Kristin eventually one day.
We're left with so many questions why,
I don't understand you're not by my side.
Your dad can't even tuck you into your bed,
All these thoughts are rambling through my head.
Life must be tough without his baby girl, 
Everything seems so small without you on this world.
Still we can hear you cheering for your team,
Is this really real or is it just a dream?
At home there's less laundry to do,
Your mom really misses washing clothes for you.
She misses telling you; telephone call,
Priceless memories hang upon the walls.
You were too pure, God wanted you above,
We all miss your smile, laughter and love.
You had an angels face, now you really are,
I know your really close though you seem so very far.
I can't even describe what I feel,
Distorted with disbelief it still is so real.
I swore it was a mistake when I heard the news,
God would never close eyes so very blue.
And for a heart that luscious to stop beating,
I know you never had any plans on leaving.
I believe in miracles for a miracle you are,
I know your looking down from a bright shining star.
So good-bye to you Kristin, dear friend of mine,
I'll see you again some other time.
God will bring us together, he owes it me,
Even then, I'm sure you'll be smiling.
When you were on Earth, you did what you do best,
You made people smile and laugh; now Kristin you may rest. 

-Morgan Brewer

Kristin was an amazing girl. She just glistened wherever she went and I miss her so much. She could look into a person's eyes and see right into their soul and very few can do this. Her laugh was so genuinely sincere and her short time of existence changed my life.
She opened her heart to me when I was barely the age of four and as the years went by she never lost that genuine child in her heart. She made a huge impact on my life and there are very few people who you can meet and remember for the rest of your life and I will 
never forget Kristin or any of the remarkable things she did for me. I wont ever be able to forget my Kristin Marie and now no one ever will. I love you and I miss you Kristin. 

Request:

I only request small things: Please pray for Kristin every night before you go to sleep just to let her know that we all still care and second, don't forget to tell people you love that you do and don't do it tomorrow, do it today. 
You never know if there will be tomorrow and don't be so selfish to let today pass you by. Kristin lived everyday to it's fullest so before she died she had no regrets; only pure memories.
