My head is in the clouds

"Remember the day your loved one passed away is the furthest you will ever be away from them. Each sunset brings you closer to one another."

That's a sweet quote that was on a table at  the funeral for my step-sisters baby boy. I've thought of it often. This anticipatory grief is complicated and hard. Sometimes I feel awkward in public. My thoughts are often scattered....my head in the clouds. Thinking about quotes like that.....or making plans about how our family is going to get through this and somehow be better for our trials.

That's all I have for today. Sometimes life is complicated and hard. I have faith. I feel blessed. But sometimes it feels good to say....this is all very hard.

I got cabin fever yesterday so I took the kids for a little adventure. It was fun for me and Max and Sophie surprised me and slept most of the time ;-)
