I was feeling a little sad today, and it is such a beautiful day so I decided to count my blessings instead of dwelling on Brian's absence from my life. I got my book, that I got from Sharon on Mother's Day, and looked at all the blessings that I have in my life......My Children, family and of course Rick. Yes, Brian is still included as one of my blessings, but I need to remember what a joy he and the rest of my family have brought to my life. I don't need to dwell on the fact that he is no longer here.
Yesterday I listened to voice messages from Brian over my loud speakers and it felt like he was still here, and it made me happy. Little things like that help me get through each day.
Another thing that helps is when my children come over and visit with me in person. I love texting with them, but there's nothing like seeing them in person. FaceTime is nice too when visiting is not an option, and I've done a lot of that for almost an entire year. Now that I am fully vaccinated against Covid-19, I plan on visiting in person. No more masking up or staying apart. Every one of them is welcomed here, with or without masks, and we don't have to social distance either. I miss my kids and I love them very much.
I'm going to try to add some of the pictures from my book below. They won't be of good quality because I'll be taking pictures of pictures in a book, but I just wanted to share them here, and I just picked pages at random to share. I hope that I didn't leave anyone out and if I did, I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional.....and I still love you :)
While posting these pictures, Sharon Facetimed me and we had a very nice conversation. I always love hearing from her. We talked about everything, and I finally lost her when she entered a "black zone" with no phone reception.
