Let's see what we can all do to find Susan

As many of you know Susan is a very close friend of mine from work, we have known each other for almost six years now. We have laughed and cried together.. been there for each other studying for our Licenses (series 7 and 63 brokers license) We have been pregnant together, been to each other's baby showers. She does my hair, I take her pictures and we let the kids play together. I miss my friend so much and just want to bring her home any way possible.



There has been a lot of emotion over the last month since Susan has been missing. Me and Susan were looking forward to our work party, that was scheduled the same week as the disappearance. She had a joke that she was going to show up Wearing a Tiara, and a prom dress. I couldn't wait to see her actually do it! I went to the work party, and no Susan of course, it was hard.. That very same night, we had the first Vigil for Susan, I cried as we sang "Silent Night" one of her favorite songs.. I spent that week and several others since talking to the police, and giving the media permission to use her beautiful pictures.. Anything to help bring her home.



Before I knew it, Christmas was here, and I couldn't disappoint my kids, I had to pick myself up, and stop worrying so much, I had to show my kids the importance of Christmas, what it is all about about, and how to let love in. I hope my kids don't know how it really felt inside.. numb.. still searching for Susan.. wondering if it is so hard for me.. what is it like for her family? How is it I am so lucky to hold my kids, make Christmas cookies and read them stories and tuck them into bed. I cry just thinking about how Charlie and Braden must feel missing their Mommy.

Braden just had a birthday, and Charlies will be very soon as well. I know Susan, she would never want to miss all of these big important events in her children's lives. If she is alive and out there, I don't want to imagine the torture she is going through, missing all of this. Part of me hopes she is just at peace, and is not going through that kind of pain, or any for that matter.

I just pray some how we find her, that someone knows something that will help bring this Long search to an end. Peace to the torment that everyone close to her like myself is going through. Please do what you can to pass around the flier, send the video link, join the FaceBook friends and family group. There is so much you can do to get her face out there.. You never know who might have seen her, or seen something that can help bring this all to an end, bring her home..

here is her flier:

I have always wanted a baby that loves to play with his toes. Kaden and Clover both had no interest in their feet whatsoever.. Finally, I have been blessed! Holston can't get enough of his feet!

My Dear Friend Susan is Missing...

Susan is one of those people that you want to have in your life. She is so giving, and always there to listen. I have known this wonderful girl for almost six years when I started working with her at Fidelity Investments. We studied for our licenses together, we grew as friends, and we were always there for each other through our pregnancies, and birth of our children. I would do anything for her, and she has already done so much for me. She loves her kids more than anything in this world, and I want her to come home safe and sound to her kids. I recently took pictures of her with her family as you can see above.

If you have seen Susan anywhere or have any information to her where abouts please contact the West Valley Police Department at: 801-840-4000

Remember when?

I was just sitting here at work, and thinking about when Kaden was Two months old, like Holston is now.. It was a very interesting, exciting, and hard time in our lives. I don't know how to pin it down to one emotion or word. I had been laid off my job in San Diego at Cingular Wireless.. I had a brand new baby, and was not anywhere near ready to look for a new job, it was time to move back Home to Utah. We were so sad to leave the friends we were leaving behind.. the family we had "made" in San Diego. At the same time we were also looking forward to bringing Kaden home to our family, and giving him the gift of, Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents. I can't believe how much has changed in almost 7 years, we were like Kids! Ok.. we are still like kids.. but older looking.. and now we have 3 kids of our own, not just 1. Here is a Picture of us shortly after we moved back:



Wow.. looking at this picture I still can't get over how much Kaden looks like his new brother Holston. No wonder these memories have been flooding back! Here is a picture of Holston this evening..
