Ok, last video tribute
This one goes out to Leigh Ann.
I wanted it to be a good one, so I went through about a thousand different videos looking for the perfect one. I wanted it to express the appreciation that everyone has for all of your encouragement. Your friendship means a lot to everyone around here.
So in the end, I couldn't find a video that did you justice.
Sorry.
So I had to get creative and go ahead and make my own video for you.
So turn up the speakers a little bit, grab some tissues (you'll need them), sit back, and see the video tribute to Save Leigh Ann.
I did my best to get the lyrics to match the pics. Well, you'll see what I'm talking about.

Words fail me. That was absolutely amazing. You captured the essence of Leigh Ann!
That was so moving and beautiful. You both are awesome and so are all blogging friends! but you guys are something else. *good sigh*
Jag,
I went to read your blog and was stunned to see my name. As I was reading it I got goose bumps.
I turned off the tv and lights and sat down, not knowing what I was about to see.
No words can explain what was going through my head when I was watching it. I was in complete and utter awe at the awesome work that you did.
I need to tell you that before I saw this I was driving home. I was frantically trying to reach my best friend because I was so upset about my grandparents. My grandmother's memory is deteriorating and I am watching her slip away. All I wanted to do was to talk to someone to tell them how depressed I was at seeing her like that. That I didn't think I had the strength to deal with watching them like this. That maybe I made a wrong decision to stop the nurses from coming. That I'm afraid I am going to fail my mom and that my grandparents were going to have to use their savings because I just wasn't strong enough.
No one answered the phone.
I felt so alone and scared.
Until I looked at your blog.
As I was watching this, tears running down my face, you made me see that God exists. Over and over again I am shown these miracles. You are one of them.
You managed to pick a time where I was completely uncertain about what I was going to do and even down to the song changed my entire outlook on life.
I really don't know how to react except say thank you. Thank you for being born and for being one of the best friends I have never met.
What is incredible is that as soon as I watched it, I called my best friend again (the one in the video you did) and she answered. For two hours she didn't answer and I call and she is there. I told her to go to your site (that she knows well) She was at work and she was crying as she watched it. I'm sure she got a few looks from people but she didn't care.
You have no idea of the incredibleness that makes you YOU.
You blow me away.
Thank you for saving me. Over and over again.
I have goose bumps, chills, tears, and a runny nose now. Thank you. It's so wonderful when I see other people see just how amazing my best friend is...
Now, having said that... HOW AM I GOING TO TOP THIS? I can't. I just am not capable of doing something better than this...You have topped most of my silly cards, letters, and emails to Leigh Ann!
Should I be afraid? Is Leigh Ann going to trade me in for a new best friend? OH NO!
Naw... Just kidding. I loved it all. Thank you for all of your support that you have given her... All of you... Really, THANK YOU.
Jacular... that is truly amazing. Thank you from all of us who love Leigh Ann for making this vid for her...
Leigh Ann is lucky to have a friend like yourself (i'm sure she knows this)...
awww! i bet that made her day! Thanx for adding me in there! what a nice gesture.
Jagular,
Did I tell you that you are the most unselfish person I have ever not known. :-)
Amazing you are!!
You give me hope that good and unselfish people exist out in blogland. GOOD WORK!!
