Two Months

Yesterday, I was talking to my friend, Dorothy, about how much I missed writing in my blog.  I didn't realize how cathartic it was for me to write my thoughts.  Many people at the funeral asked if I was going to continue.  Several told me they read my blog with their morning coffee every day.  I've decided I will keep it going for myself and anyone who would like to read it.

Two Months.  It has been two months today since we lost Superman.  He is not suffering any more and is enjoying holiday dinners with his parents and best friend, Kevin.  Dana, Daniel and I are making an effort to enjoy the holidays but the hole he left behind is very difficult to fill.

Dana and Daniel are in finals week now.  They are both studying hard and counting the minutes until they can come home.  I'm excited to have them home for almost a month.  We also have 2 new family members that will make the holidays merry and bright.  Teddy and Tess are 7 week old Japanese Spitz puppies.  They bring lots of entertainment to me daily.

This holiday season will be series of "firsts" for us.  The first Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years without Superman.  We feel fortunate to have made so many wonderful memories in the past.  However, we need to make happy memories this year for the future.  Our Church family, neighbors, friends and family are all helping us with that. We feel thankful for them. Until my next post, enjoy the Christmas festivities and hug your families tight.
