Mother and 4 children killed by drunk driver

I just can't shake this story from my head.I had never met this woman in person,but I had "known" her on a yahoo group I was on.We had children that were the same age,and her DD that was my DD's age was one of the children killed.This just makes my heart ache for everyone involved.I don't know how a family moves on after a tragedy like this.And I just have this feeling that I have to do something,but I don't know what.Here's the link to the article for the accident and also a myspace account that has been set up by Bethany's best friend.

My introduction...

Well,I've decided to finally take the plunge and write my first blog,LOL.I've been a member for a while now,but I've never really known what to say. I've really enjoyed reading what everyone else has to say.So,here goes nothing...I'm Cara 34 yrs young (Hee Hee) yeah I think age is a state of mind.And even though I have 4 kids I still feel young.I'm a SAHM.I've been home with my kids since my oldest was a year.I worked full time his first year and I missed so much,so quit and have been home ever since.I have 2 boys and 2 girls.They are Nicholas-11,Marisa-8,Kyle-7 and Madeline-6.I had 4 kids in 5 1/2 yrs.Yeah,I know crazy!And it wasn't planned that way either.But now that they are getting bigger it is nice and I wouldn't have done it any other way. They are all in school now,so I've found myself trying to find my niche in this world.I love raising my kids but I need more,if you know what I mean? About a year and half ago I worked with a woman who had started her own company selling mineral make up and hence my obsession with make up began.From make up I became obsessed with natural skincare,and now don't even use anything with parabens or SLS. I'm slowly trying to remove these products from my childrens routines also.That's going to be a challenge,they love their Colgate watermelon toothpaste.My latest endeavor has been making my own line of mineral make up.It's called Kiss And Make Up Minerals,www.kissandmakeupminerals.com.I have a website but nothing on it yet other than my logo.Check it out and let me know what you think.I'm planning on working on my website after the Christmas.We'll see how that goes though because the kids will be home,so it may have to wait till they go back to school.Well,gotta run.....Hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday season!!
