Day Forty Three - Friday - My kids

Today I'm Grateful for:-

Today I'm grateful for my girls and S-I-L being here.

The kids (growed ups) are here!!! I really missed my girls. I find incredible comfort in having them near me when I am so low.

Today is my favourite Uncle/Brother's funeral. One of my absolute favourite people in the universe is gone. He was my Uncle, my brother, my best friend and my terrible twin. We grew up together and spent our whole lives being there for each other. Always. When my Hubby was away with the Navy, Uncle was the one I would turn to if the washing machine broke down. You know the kind of thing. Even when we lived in separate states, we were still very much in each other's lives. As he got sicker, I was there to help him. My Hubby, (Uncle's best friend from the age of 14) was always there for Uncle too. We were the three musketeers. And today we have to say goodbye. It's too hard.

I am grateful that my Hubby, and my Girls are here with me, because for them I can be strong.

Hubby broke down and cried at the funeral today. Lizzie cried at the funeral today. S-I-L cried at the funeral today. Jam cried too.

I didn't cry.

Kisses
