7 years...
Can it really be?
Today, an anniversary of sorts,
remembering the day we said our last goodbyes...
Not a happy kind of anniversary {sigh}
So much missing these past 7 years.
Her voice, her laugh, her love...
These anniversary kind of days bring the focus to bear on all we've lost.
And maybe I thought by this time we'd be experts at this grief thing...
Not so much.
So we stumble through the minefield of loss and discover that the remembering takes us to places of tiny joys
And we start smiling...
And our hearts open wide.
She left us a legacy of love that is a joy to remember.
In the grieving {and the remembering} we find our footing...
Gentle, Solid, Full of Hope.
God is gracious to comfort...
And that is Grace for today,
Always,
Jane
