the morning after
Hi everyone, another birthday over and I'm doing ok. I went to Donna's last night and she had a cake and my grandchildren and DIL came by. They all gave me some gifts and I appreciate being remembered on my birthday and all of their thoughtfulness.
I came home and read all of the supportive comments and hugs and birthday wishes from all of you and it helped a lot. I did some crying but its ok. I know I must mourn my son on these days and its like my friend here at FMO Sarah, Andy's mom, said in her journal. Happy & sad, side by side.
My friend here at FMO, Lynn, Clinton's mom, reminded me to look for Ed and I did. I got a wink. A license plate in front of me had the year of my birth and the year of Ed's birth on it. Then I saw a plate that said "Ed" on it. Hi Ed!!
Thanks for being in my corner. It means a lot!
Love and peace, Linda

1955 was a good year... :) Happy to know that you celebrated the day and yes, side by side and all those happenings when we are aware. You received some very special ones dear Linda. I celebrate you and all that you bring to FMO with your constant presence and care. Lots of love the day after and in the ones that follow. Hugs, Joanie
Linda, I am so sorry...I did not know it was your birthday. Please know I wish you all the best and a lifetime of peace and comfort. I know that it is never easy having these celebrations without our boys...but you and I have that one big celebration to come...and that is what we set our sites on....love and birthday blessings forever to you and Eddie...xoxoxoxo dale, brandon\'s mom
WOW I really need to start looking at license plates for signs. I do believe that souls can send messages to us by arranging the right thing to be put in the right place at the right time. After reading Teri\'s journal about the license plate from Kala and reading this journal I\'m going to try to be more observant of signs and plates. Terry
Wow! Andy wished you a Happy Birthday. I am glad you had a happy/sad day.
Love, Marlene
Happy Belated Birthday - I seem to be perpetually running late these days!
I know you missed Eddie - but he did give you a \"wink\" - I love that.
Here\'s Hoping you have many more Birth Days to celebrate...Love Suzzane
Happy Belated Birthday. I\'m glad you were able to have some smiles and some cries \"side by side\". Those days will never be the same for us but they can still be enjoyed. Love the \"wink\". Sending you some late birthday hugs. Love Robin
That is a neat wink Eddie sent you--they are with us, and let us know, in big ways and small ways.
Love+Hugs, Donna
Love the winks my friend and happy birthday love to you
A great birthday!!! so wonderful when God lets our son\'s love come to us when we need it....Love to you Sandi
That\'s great about the license plates. There is so much going on in the world that we don\'t notice as we bustle heedlessly about. It must have been very reassuring to you.
Happy birthday, a bit late.
