July 115th ,2007

Well I know its not july 15th 2007. But this is one day that I will never forget. I guess I recived the call about 4:50 on July the 16th. Which was on a Monday last year. One that I never wanted to hear. It was my grandmother telling me a husband and wife had been murdered in there home not even 1 mile from my home. And then she asked me could it of been Hershel and Tereasa. Which by the way is my oldest son Landons Favorite Aunt and Uncle. I said no they would have already called me. Well I hung up with my grandmother to call to find out. Well there was no answer at anyones house. Then the phone rang it was my grandmother in shock saying Amber it was them . Well my heart just broke because they kept Landon alot. And no one had called and I didn't even know where he was. Finally Falon called me back and told me what was going on and that she was going to have her mom bring Landon to me but no one wanted him to know right then what was going on. Which was fine. I was just so happy to put my arms around my baby. It was a terrible terrible murder. A family friend and the Florences were just having argumnets and disagreements . Well this man who I will not name had already threatened Hershel at a gas station well the cops were called a report was made and it did no good because the DA would not give them the type of warrent that was needed to protect this man. So 3 days later death came knocking at there door and he shot and killed hershal and tereasa Florence and i can say that teresa was an outstanding women and Christian. And my Son loved them so much.
Tuesday :
It was just a regular day we went grocery shopping and tried to make everything as normal for Landon as we could.
Wensday: July 18th , 2007 The worst call of my entire life ..... A call I replay in my head and a call I was not prepared for and still wish it would of never came. I guess it was about 1:00pm I was heading to take Landon to his Dads and it was the day that they had burried Teresa . I was coming aound the curve at oak grove high school when my cell phone rang. It was my grandmother and of couse I didn't have much service but I could tell she was crying I kept saying mom what is wrong what is wrong. And she started screaming Michelle is dead Michelle is dead and we don't know where the boys are. My heart sunk like a ship and i just started screaming your lying to me it not true and I hung up the phone and called Michelles cell phone begging her to call me that they were lying to me that she couldn't be dead. I had talked to her the night before and we had made plans to get together that weekend. I called my grandmother back to tell her she had to be lying to me. And she wasn't lying to me. I called my mother n law and she agreed to watch alana and Ryan. I got to Carlos and no one was there and I called his Moms and they said he was at his gradparents and was on his way back and its just right up the hill anyway. Well when I pulled up Falon which is Carlos' wife and his sister met me at the car and i just fell on the ground cying and asking them what is happening to our families. By that time Carlos his mom and his brother n law came up and were wondering what was going on and they told them and they could not belive it. Falon had just talked to her the week before about mary kay maycup she had ordered from her. It was a shock. Tammy Falon and April took me to my mother n laws and then home and offered to drive me to the hospital but Eugene was going with me. I go t to the hospital and I found out that Ethan was okay just a little Bruising and that Dalton had a cut on his head which he had to have stiches and a broken nose. He was coughing up blood and yet still was brave enough to tell me Aunt Amber the doctors said that it was good for me to do this. I rember looking at him and he was so brave . He never stopped being brave. Even though he knew his mommy was gone. I read him a brave lion story and just sat with him and talked to him. My grandmother stayed the whole night with him. While my Brother Bryant took Ethan home with him to his Daddys. Bryant had finally fould the women he truly loved. At times I have been so mad at her because she was driving so fast. Her accident was horific. She was going 90+ and hit one 18 wheeler then she was ejected out of the car and a 2nd 18 wheeler ran over her. I loved her more than a sister n law, but as a true best friend and real sister. She really meant alot to me even though we would have our problems we always worked through them and stayed close. I miss her so much . And It is so hard to look at my brother because he is greiving so m,uch and it has been a year but that pain is still just as great as the day that she passed. She was bueatiful. Loving and generous. No one that was close to her can look aound there home and not see something almost in every room and for me it was everyroom, that she gave them. When she would buy things it was 2 or 8 of everything. She loved giving.
Everyone that is reading this please keep Bryant Nabors and Dalton and Ethan Nabors in your prayers everyday they need it more that you will ever know.
