I hope you are doing okay. I have thought of you and prayed for you. I lost my step-father December 18th (four years ago) and it was so difficult. I hope he is at peace and that you will be eventually too.

Dear Donna, I am so sorry, I did not know about your father. It is never easy, ever, ever. A wise person told me once, feel how ever you want and as long as you want. This helped me, I realized then, there are no rules to grieving. Good luck and welcome back, we missed your voice.

Ahh... I was thrilled to see you show up on my blog roll with a new post .. glad you're back ;)

Tessa said...

welcome back! my prayers for you as you continue the healing process. my husband lost his mother in nov. some days the reality of her being gone can hit very hard, and others we can laugh and joke about the funny things she would have said in a certain situation. grief is a long, sometimes strange, journey, but i'm told that the grip on your heart will ease as time goes by, even though you'll always miss him. Blessings to you, Donna!
