Godspeed Easy
Through my dark day yesterday, wallowing in pitiful grief, which I haven’t done in a while, I tried to catch up on Blogville. To make me smile. Then. It hit me. Stared me in the face through the computer screen. … Continue reading
Stuart’s Always With Us
I’ve heard this a thousand times. But only recently has my grieving heart been open enough to know it’s true. Stuart is, and always will be, with us. He finds subtle ways to let us know he’s there. Today, I … Continue reading

A Summer of Firsts
There’s a first time for everything. Especially in grief. And I think those first times are the hardest. The first time we went to our local Farmers’ Market without Stuart, I made myself go. I didn’t want to, but I … Continue reading

Independence Day
Today, I’m thankful for Stuart’s independence from hemangiosarcoma. From the cancer growing around his heart. He’s free of disease. He’s free of his fear of thunder and fireworks. He’s free, but the Dad Peep and I are not. We’re held … Continue reading
