Dishes break, and they would have eventually. And you would have felt horrible - and maybe angry - many times over, each time you broke one, or Duke broke one, or Christopher. You got it all over with in one horrible, gut-wrenching afternoon. And then, like you the phoenix that you are, you soared out of the ashes and turned your tragedy into something so very much more beautiful - and unbreakable. I didn't cry when I read this. I felt proud of you. Am I a total weirdo or what? And while I haven't lost my mother yet, I have lost someone very, very close to me, and I know it hurts like fucking hell.Melissa Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217685692400484226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692212489462792524.post-6019692708933536202009-11-25T08:35:59.039-08:002009-11-25T08:35:59.039-08:00Sounds fabulous GleNN

I , as a house warming gift to you and the boys, all three of them now, AM GOING TO MAKE ART FOR YOU AND YOUR NEW HOME IN THE NAME OF FUNISIM ! I love you.

They may seem silly to others, but to me it is like being allowed another moment to be touched by her physically when I pick up something that belonged to her or that she gave me. Anyone who does not understand this is fortunate enough to not yet have experienced true loss...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
