Another Year.....July 15, 2010

Reminders of our loss continued as we celebrated Steve’s birthday today. He would have been 52.

I spent the morning letting my emotions flow. I didn’t feel like going to the cemetery today to celebrate, I was too sad. It’s difficult to celebrate great memories, rather than another year of a wonderful life together.

In the afternoon, I pulled myself together and took the kids to Rio Grand (one of Steve’s favs) for lunch. We then ventured on to the cemetery. The kids had purchased balloons, and a birthday sign for his grave.

I keep thinking it will get easier, but I’m not sure it ever will.
