On Thursday, in a different province, because we lived many miles apart, the police showed up at my door to tell me she was dead. I try not to think of the time I missed, but that our last words were that of love. Those moments you had with your dad were pure love. Embrace them, cherish them, and keep sharing them with the world like you did. You brought the love back to me in a very profound way.Sharonhttp://www.yummymummyclub.ca/the_inside_scoopnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18820173.post-46289433413878294762010-11-06T17:15:14.476-07:002010-11-06T17:15:14.476-07:00Oh, crying here too.
