  • There are not enough Kleenex in a box.
  • Mascara maybe waterproof, but it’s not tear proof.
  • Kids are too intuitive for their own good.
  • Grief has no expiration date.
  • Hugs do help… even the non tactile.

And despite this trip, being filled with sorrow, grief, tears and laughter, we are happy that we made it.  The comfort and security of our home surroundings helped us say “goodbye”.

    Before we left though our 7 and 5 year olds wanted to visit Ben one more time.  The previous day they had given me a bunch of daffodils that I was to bring to Bens’ grave. They needed to check that I had done as they asked.  On seeing the flowers, I got hugs and kisses…and they ran off to play hide and seek among the grave stones. My joy at seeing them so carefree is filled with sorrow for the brother they will not grow up with.
