I dont have many words right now. November 3rd will be 5 years that the most amazing Dad passed away. I miss him so dang bad and i have to always hide it and not let my grief out to protect my Mom. Almost 5 years and still haunts me i never got to say goodbye and never got closure. I miss him so dang bad......... I really need support this is pulling me down fast. My heart hurts so bad missing him ,and my 5 children up in Heaven with him. Only comfort i get is knowing my Dad and my 5 babies i lost are together! Along with my dog i lost 2 years ago in November on the 19th. Very sudden as well. I dont know what else today but my heart is really hurting...........

rocking you gently and crying with you, angela. . .

we just passed the 6th anniversary of the traffic accident which took my beloved son and the woman who called me, "monster-in-law." the children who called them, "mommy and daddy" are 6, 9 and 12 now. i haven't tried to hide my own angst from them (children are not so easily fooled as grownups) but i have felt constant need to take great care in marshaling my words to respect their individual grieving processes.

sigh. . . grief is a long and mysterious process. my heart still hurts often, but it is getting easier to appreciate the value of the love which makes the grieving so hard.

rocking you gently and crying with you. . .

No words can soothe such great pain. But I will pray our Creator sends comfort to your aching heart. I lost my best friend, mom, in April 2023 and my husband in a devastating way in 2020. We have a blessed hope that we will see our loved ones again. Until then, let’s keep running the race set before us. Amen

    Have you ever done that? Cooked and ordered out? I ordered fried chicken from a local place called Harold's Chicken and I cooked yellow rice and made a salad. For dessert we just had some Bryers No sugar added vanilla ice cream. We have some Hershey's zero sugar chocolate syrup to put on it if we want to. However I just ate my vanilla ice cream the way that it is. I like vanilla ice cream. The...
