Miss you My Dear Sweet Friend

Well It has been almost, how many years, 2. And I still think of you so often.  You had filled a gap in my life that is constantly missing.  And now I have trouble filling the void that you have left in my heart.  

I'm a lot lonelier without you in my life to bring a spark of light and happiness every time you called. Which my the way was really often.  Sometimes we would talk with in a 3 hour span like 5 times.  You were quite funny let me tell you.  Sometimes you didn't know or I didn't know if you were coming or going.  But I always knew where you were. You never moved from place to place.  And you love was always waiting for someone at the door. 

I miss those big old bear hugs you gave every time we came to visit you.  And whether you could easily stand or not the bear hug you gave when we were leaving. You always mustard up the strenght to get up and give some love.

I miss you Diane.  You were a large part of my life for a very short time. But I feel we will definitely be meeting up in another life if not in Heaven. 

I know it was one of your favorite holidays.  You could give to everyone without them thinking of ulterior motives. I wish you a Very Merry Christmas.  

God Bless you and God bless all my family and friends.

August 2, 2013.  Well last month a friend of Edisons had a near drowning accident and he almost died. Which is where near and almost come in.  It happened July 7th.  Well today we went to visit him for the first time since it happened.  We were both a tad nervous. But for someone that was on a ventilator it was not so bad.  Just don't know what to say. Except what we have been doing and not doing and wishing he were around to get my kid out of the house.  Edison has been spending so much time in the classroom that I think if is growing roots and planting them in the floor.

But is was nice to see Colten.  And scarry. To think that we almost lost a friend.  I didn't want that for Edison.  Not at 12.  It is one thing to lose a grandparent but something else to lose someone so young.

He should make a full recovery if not life may be a tad rough for Colten.  The doctors keep telling Sheri that kids are so much stronger than we think they are. And they are all impressed with how strong Colten is.

My kid never seize to amaze me.  His compassion and kind heart is so big. I know that Colten was happy to see him.
