Quotes say it better than I could!

"When someone you love dies, and you're not expecting it, you don't lose them all at once; you lose them in pieces over a long time - the way the mail stops coming - and their scent fades from the pillows and even from the clothes in their closet and drawers. Gradually, you accumulate the parts of them that are gone. Just when the day comes, when there's a particular missing part that overwhelms you with the feelings that they're gone forever, there comes another day, and another specifically missing part." Anonymous

This pretty much sums up how I feel all the time! Missing my Danny like crazy... wishing things were different! Trying to figure out the "why" and reflecting on our life together!

I love you and miss you Dan!

Things I miss......

Since my husband's passing 5 long, tiresome weeks ago, I have thought about him constantly and probably every minute of the day. There are many things that I miss about him and his sayings. It seems that everywhere I go, he is reminding me of our life together. In a way, this is bittersweet.

What I miss about Dan:

When he smiles at me for no reason.
His subtle " I love yous" just out of the blue.
The way he would stand and tell me goodbye when I would leave for the day.
The color of his eyes when he stood in the light... they were the prettiest green every.
Friday steak nights and watching our dvr movies.
Hugs and kisses all throughout the day... this includes kisses goodnight.
The smell of his deodorant.
Holding hands and touching feet while in bed.
Everyday conversations which usually turned into me asking advice about something.
Walks to have a drink.
Walks after having a drink...ouch!
The way he loved me.

The list could go on... but I am beginning to cry!
I will never forget you Danny! I love you forever!

Happy 2nd Birthday Gabe!

Well... I was so slack and didn't write anything on my blob about Gabe's week. I really just didn't want to but now I am ready to write a few words.

Dear Gabe,
You will never know how many people thought of you on your birthday and passing day. You are so loved and in a way it is bittersweet b/c you should be here to feel that love. I still think about you everyday and what could have been. There are no words to express how much I miss you. You are one of the best things that could ever have happened to me. I sure hope that they threw you a grande party in heaven... you deserve the best! I love you more than anyone could ever love someone!

Love,
Mommy
