Comment by MFARM on Tuesday Juls, I will be 11 months the 22nd, and I get so tired of being up.Yesterday, I worked outside on landscaping until dark, washed my outdoor porches, and do constant farm decision making and business. I also have gone places with a lot of relatives, children and freinds, but nothing fills that heartache. This site is a comfort though knowing I'm normal and that so many of you are experiencing the same and can understand. I'm so sorry for us all.
Comment by Juls on Tuesday My sweetheart husband crossed over 2 years ago tomorrow. The world cracked, the light went out and I was destroyed. Each day I put one foot in front of the other and go through the motions. Yes, the pain is less intense and I meltdown less frequently. But 24 months is a blink of an eye compared to 23 years of constant friendship and love. I want to hear his voice and his laugh and I ache for him tonight. Just come back to me for 5 minutes. Memories are not enough - they never will be. I miss you more than I thought was ever possible. I'm so tired and tomorrow will be worse.

Comment by alwayshopeful (Jocelyn) on May 10, 2013 at 8:56pm Dear Friends. This was read at our wedding and at my husband's memorial service. I think it's appropriate for Mother's Day for anyone.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love and hugs to all of you this weekend.
Jocelyn~
