Happy Birthday Lisa
I have been in a blue funk for the last week. It is not a surprise - it happens before each special occasion without Lisa. Today is Easter Sunday and April 20th, Lisa's 42nd birthday. It makes me sad when I think about what might have been. I imagine we would be in Ottawa to celebrate. We would be so excited about Cevyn's upcoming grad. Instead, I sit on the sofa remembering the good times, trying to ignore the not so good times.
Our weather has warmed up so we have our windows open. I heard the most beautiful sound - a bird in the tree singing - Lisa. I looked out and it was on an empty branch. She sang for a long time before flying away. Amazingly, the magpies and crows were nowhere to be seen or heard!
We opted not to go to Edmonton to spend the holiday with Andrew, Tiina and her family. I just didn't feel like being with a crowd. So we are home having a quiet day. I will light candles and roast a duck for dinner - we are not great ham eaters, go for a walk and this evening our neighbours will come over to drink a toast to Lisa. '
Wishing all a Happy Easter.
My dearest Lisa: I am so sad that I can't give you a real birthday hug. I hope you are celebrating - dancing and having a wonderful day. Thank you for the bird serenade this moring. It was beautiful. I miss you always and love you forever, Mummy

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA !!
I went to a family Easter at my brothers. Everything looked so wonderful and everyone was in such a good mood. All was well until they played a song by cd lang - it was played at Ami\'s funeral. I sat in horror as everyone was still and listening. I fled the room and hid in my brothers office and cried my eyes out. The rest of the day was bitter sweet. ...Love you Ami. Rose
I am so glad, Lisa sent a bird to serenade you and you recognised it, for what it was!! Your Easter celebration sounds very nice, especially toasting Lisa, with your friends :)
