togetherness

We like to be together.  We don't like to be apart, though it makes me realize how much we rely on one another and I love that...living life as a family.  We each miss him in our own way when he is gone and we are whole when he's home. 

The days are very nostalgic now.  Last dinners, conversations of when we will see each other again.  Christmas music playing and putting up a tree, but not ours.

We are anticipating much.  That helps in the midst of change.  Those around us are such beautiful people.  That, of course, does not make the change easier except that I don't feel alone in this journey and for that I'm thankful.
