Popular Post Kari C in SC Posted May 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 15, 2015 I thought I would, once again, say thank you to all the kind people here. For the most part, I have been way better with this anniversary than other dates that have gripped me with anxiety. We took our kids on a cruise to celebrate our 25th anniversary at the beginning of May and that helped calm me tremendously. I still have this giant hole in my heart, but over these years, I have learned to live with it better. There are always going to be the days and the moments where I am right back there though. Anyway, I blogged for the first time, about what happened that day. I could not do that until now. I also blogged about why we took our kids with us on what could have been a couple only anniversary trip. It's been a giant year of growth for us. I will miss him until I open my eyes and see him again, but for now, I am finding joy right here. http://crazyeverydayblessings.blogspot.com 61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halftime Hope Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Kari, dear lady, I'm so glad to read your post. You've been in my thoughts and prayers recently, and you even got several mentions on the "Old Timers" thread a week or two ago. I'm so glad you are in a place when the word joy can be part of your vocab, and even better, a real part of your day! God bless! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
