The Walk We Take

This blog is our walk, our way after the loss of a wonderful son, brother, & friend.
At only 21 years old our beautiful Dayton was killed in a horrible car accident and went home to be with our Heavenly Father.
Dayton Tyler Beard was a young man full of life. His love for family, friends, and our Heavenly Father surpassed many. He loved to fish, hunt, dance, mudding, horseback riding, working on cars and the Army; but his true love was others, he loved being around others, he loved helping others. That was one of the reasons he joined the Army. He had such an amazing effect on everyone he came into contact with, and that would be why he was loved by so many and will be greatly missed. It has been breathtaking as to how many people has told us he was an amazing man and how he has changed their life. This young man made an impact on this world. He was part of the 13th bravo 1st brigade 2-12FA, he loved being a soldier, son, brother, & friend.

O God how I miss him! Its so hard to accept he is gone.
Happy Mother's Day to the greatest mother alive, the one that has pushed me to do my best. To follow my dreams and never has turned her back on me or betrayed me when others have. Even when I did fuck up, she was still there to keep pushing me forward and continue to strive. The one that has been through so much but still looks on the bright side and still finds away to smile. The one that had 6 boys, and should be grey headed by now. But she always does anything for her kids. I'm 11 hours away, and not a day goes by she tells me how proud of me she is. My mother is by far my best friend. I tell her anything and everything. I will never find a women in my life that will even compare to my mother. I miss her so much. And can't wait to see her in July. I love you momma.

Dayton Tyler Beard may not be here to love us in the flesh but he is here in the spirit! And he is still working his magic! 2 more (that I know of so far) has given their life to the Lord! PRAISE THE LORD! I know my baby is dancing in heaven today. He has seen the glory and wants us all to join him. And even though every day is very painful for us all we musst lean on Christ. Allow Him to comfort us.
Furthermore I oh so greatly appriciate everyones prayers for me and my framily but please remember to continue to pray for Nikki Bryer and Cami McGee and the other gentelman involved. But also for ALL the friends and family. Because they are all going through so much pain as well. I know God will heal my pain and He will heal yours too if you will just give it to him. Please feel free to call me, stop by, anything I will help you.

Tell your loved ones you love them every day! Hug them, kiss them, make sure they know-they know- the KNOW, how much you care. I am very thankful for the fact that I was what most would call a "stocking mom" because I did, I DO! I have tried to always pay attition to my boy's posts, and I have always tried to tell them how proud I am of them. I know some may have thought I was over doing it. Honestly my boys have probably thought that as well. But I never felt I told them enough. I have always felt I could have/should have done more.
So count your blessings, name them one by one. Thank Jesus for another day to love others. Make sure you tell everyone you love them. And give them an extra kiss goodnight!
All we have is right now, tomorrow is never promised. And like my baby Dayton Tyler Beard always said "live every day to the fullest".
God Bless each and everyone of you and your loved ones.

Last night one of Dayton TylerBeards long time very best friends came by to see me. These to boys got into so much has mischief together. They had been friends longer than I can remember. And even though it hurts so bad to not have him home I can not express the warmth I feel when the people who loved him comes to see me. This young man is truly like one of my own and I love him dearly. I would like to ask all of you to please keep Dylan Hagebusch in your prayers. The depth of their friendship is unbelievable and he is having a really hard time with this. And to him along with all of Dayton's friends my door is always open to every single one of you.

Being out in the public is so hard. Maybe I'll just become a hermit.
