one month...

picture taken March 2011

It's already been one month today since we said goodbye to Dad and he was welcomed into heaven...some days it seems like it happened a while ago & other days it seems like it was just yesterday...

The most common question I get is "how is your Mom?"...you know, my Mom is a strong lady who keeps trying to put one foot in front of the other...that isn't to say, she's not lonely or has hard days or has to keep up her yard work & big empty house all by herself or just plain misses Dad...but my usual answer for her (and all of us, for that matter) is "one day at a time"...

Many of you have said you are praying for my family & I, and for this we are extremely grateful...please continue to do so as it makes those moments of tearful sobs, pain-aching heartbreak, and a blissful future in heaven that more real/comforting.
