Hi Mom, well I’m going to try this again. I just wrote you an update and then somehow deleted the entire text.
It’s just over 2 months since you transitioned. Some days are definitely easier than others. I still forget that you aren’t just a phone call away. I struggle to remember the sound of your voice or your laughter. Your smile was contagious and your laughter was infectious to all that met you!
Rick, Henry and I went to a Fish fry last night. Being that it was the first Friday of Lent. I do wonder what it’s like in Heaven as we approach celebrations like Easter and Jesus’ birthday. Well we are still dealing with “Social Distancing” due to the pandemic so we actually had to pick the dinners up and we went back to your house to eat. The time we spent together was far better than the Fish! Lol. We shared more stories about you and reminisced about how you loved your collections of things. We looked over some of your collections with pride and laughter for the joy it brought you. Henry showed us the little crystal train set that started the massive crystal collection you have today. It’s funny because the girls were always fascinated by each piece and there we were just as fascinated! Milly even shared a memory not long after you left that she had of Gracey just standing admiring it all as a little girl. Speaking of… my girls aren’t so little anymore. Can you believe Gracey will be 17 in just a few weeks and Chloe will be 13! I’ll never forget that you stayed with me until Gracey was born that night. She sure took her time didn’t she! Please watch over them and keep them out of harms way. It was nice to be able to be close to you while we were there. Henry has you sitting right under the TV so he can watch you all the time. However I guess you already know that!
Well your Celebration party will be less than a month. Henry has been putting a lot of thought into making it a perfect day. Perfect just like you were/are the Perfect partner for him as well as the perfect Mom you were to me. It will be a Crawfish Boil at Amy’s. Speaking of crawfish Henry mentioned he may even eat some crawfish. Please watch over him, I do not want him to have an allergic reaction to them. I’m finally getting some sleep so anytime you want to come visit me in my dreams the door is open…well my mind is open! Well I think you are all caught up for now. I love and miss you so very much Mom.
