As another Christmas season is upon us, I can’t help but to remember the great people that I can no longer share it with. I think they would be proud of me. I hope they would be proud of me. Memories are a funny thing. They can make you cry and make laugh, then make you wish it could all have been a little different. If I still had those people in my life, how different would my life be? Would I be married with twins? What adventures would have been? What advice would they give me? How would they have shaped my life, my thoughts, my world? All of these people left us too soon. Left me too soon.
But I think I’ve done them proud. I miss them. I often wonder what great things they would have done. And then there are the questionable things….those I think I probably miss the most. Nothing makes me laugh harder then stupidity. I don’t mean that in a bad way, rather a hilarious “jackass” kind of way.
I hope that where ever they are, they are well, happy, and in peace. I hope one day I won’t cry and only laugh at their memories.
I love you, I hope you always knew that.

Very nicely put!
Thank you. I’ve lost too many people too soon. I miss them terribly but it also reminds me to cherish the moments I have right now.
Your grandmom would be proud! She would have gotten such a kick out you having twins!! She would have rejoiced in being a GREAT Grandmom. And she would have been GREAT at it. I think about that all the time. She is smiling down at you -know that to be true. And I believe she is guiding us and protecting us. You did meet Jason-right. You fell in love with the right man. He’s a good man and I think she had a part in that.
It’s okay to look back, but always keep the focus on where you are going. I’m not a great one to give advice because I lose focus almost everyday, but DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO!! lol. You have many more memories to make in your life, so forge ahead and try to make them good ones. Love you kiddo,
