I can barely believe it has been 5 years. The pain is still fresh and yet dull at the same time. The dullness brings on a different kind of pain. I fear forgetting the few memories I have.
Don’t take time for granted.
Hug your children now.
Tell them you love them now.
Soften your words now.
Listen now.
Because later might not come.
Between work, family and homeschooling I’m staying pretty busy. On top of the sadness that is normal for us during this time, we did find out that my sister-in-law’s tumor is cancer and it’s malignant. She doesn’t know yet – I think they will be telling her after she recovers a bit more. I don’t know – it’s not something I’m very comfortable with – I hope no one ever keeps something like that from me!
Eric and I have been getting quite a few questions about what we want/need for JGirl. So, since we are keeping a list for ourselves we decided to put it on here for others. We are NOT asking for gifts!! If you have any suggestions, please be sure to share your thoughts – we are a bit out of practice! Here is the link – or it’s at the top of the page.
I woke up early to make pancakes for Eric and the boys – wow – even 1/2 hour can mess you up! It took me forever to wake up!
I added blueberries to Eric’s pancakes and he really enjoyed them! 🙂 J3 was just as thrilled NOT to have blueberries in his pancakes! LOL
Then I turned on the computer for work and I received 25(!!!) pictures of JGirl!! 🙂 Pictures of her first spoon feeding – too messy for polite society. lol Pictures of her laying down, wearing new clothes, laying on her tummy! 😀 Too many to post right now – but here is one of my favorites. LOL
