my daughter is a junior at an art academy 3000mi away. weve never gone into detail about our loses, but she is aware of them. i got an email from her last evening, and was about ready to ground her for being up way past bedtime when i opened it and saw this.


the ribbon for loss remembrance, the three stars for our three losses, the rings for our marriage, the cat is a long story, and the mustache is her own personal touch.

its so sweet of her, and it makes me realize again how lucky i have been in my life, even with my *small* misfortunes

this lose isnt hitting me as hard as the first one (which was by far the hardest), which makes me feel a little guilty, but i feel ready to move forward. we love the idea of doing something special to remember our losses, but want to wait until my daughter and MIL come out here in april.


i think i just needed to work it all out in my head, and i think i have. thanks for listening to my ramblings this weekend, it has really helped me work out my feelings. now, onto helping my sweet husband
