Headstone

Well today the headstone was placed. It looks very nice, Roby would have been impressed.

His daughters and I went in together and picked it out and paid for it. It all came from the heart.

I thought I'd be more emotional seeing it, but I'd already had my morning cry in the shower.

I was going out to the cemetery almost daily, now it's every few weeks. He's not really there, I talk to him where ever I am.

Glad you have that done. I have been waiting for months for my husband's to come in, called the lady and she had forgotten to order it. :( I hate that the grave looks so desolate, but I'm trying to get it. I don't go to the cemetary much as I don't feel he is there. I talk to him wherever I am.

I'm waiting for mine. I feel the same way you ladies do, he's really not there. I talk to him all the time,especially in the bathroom as that is where I found him. Trying to make up my mind as to whether I should sell the house, etc. I feel he's still here as he did so much work to this house. I get angry as he was going to retire in Nov. and we were going to do so much! He worked so hard all his life!

    Food Allergy?

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
