A year gone by
Babe,
It’s hard to believe its been a year…I know tomorrow is the date, but God took you on a Sunday and that is how I will remember it. I had wondered how I’d be a year from then and it wasn’t at all as bad as I’d dreaded. I had some great fellowship with peep today. We talked about you quite a bit…remembering your fear of spiders…talking of Transferville. I only cried this morning, thinking about how I got up in the morning and read to you…and how I saw tears coming down your face. Did you know that it was going to be the day? It still kills me that I didn’t know what you were thinking those last days.
But what got me crying was thinking of how I shaved your head that morning and today I was shaving my legs with that same razor…that’s when it hit me. But I’m ok…I have to remember that feeling I had when mom and I went to the funeral home and I saw you…and I knew it wasn’t you…that you weren’t there…it was just your body. You…your soul…is some place much more wonderful than here. And in a way, I can’t wait to be there too.
So for now I will be joyful here. I had a wonderful day actually. Peep and I did the nursery care today and it was great. We took Sparky to his winter home and that went well too…I didn’t hurt Little Brother’s truck, so that was good. And church was great tonight. So I can’t really say that today was a bad day at all.
Remember what Will said about us being together already…I remember seeing the comfort in your face when he told us that. So give me a hug, will you? I miss them.
Until that day…
Love you,
me
