Alone

 


Babe,

Today I want to be alone. I drove to the cemetery and when I arrive I find two funerals happening. The orange cones holding the family name brought me back to the day they guided me to your spot, with our name. Today I sat and watched Families dressed in black and a backhoe loader nearby filled with dirt. I remembered looking down into the plot dug for you. It was deep and unsettling. Yours is deeper than the traditional 6ft to make room for me to be stacked ontop.

I thought you were being dramatic! πŸ™„πŸ€―πŸ₯°. You said you were sure the next round of blood results in July would be better because we were better.   The only red flag w...

Hobi Notes

                                                                  Hey Teach! Nice Pic! πŸ€“πŸ˜ Caroline dropped off the remainder of your personal belongings and your school photos at home today.  These new piles of you were kind of rude to show up here full of your personality.  Especially your Ironman bag.   Ugh!  Sent me to tears.  I've seen you carry that bag in and out of this house so many times I almost expected to see you walk in the door. I haven't touched it.  It's still sitting in the entry.    Inside the box is a depiction of your brain:  calculator, chargers, books, timers and ...a ball of yarn...??πŸ™„. sounds about right! πŸ˜†  (Joshua loves your timers -removed before the pic- he is trying to race around the backyard before they go off, and Jadon loves the ...
