My Mother's Passing

Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of my mom's passing. A difficult day that only gets a little easier to bear with each passing year. She fought a hard but short and ugly battle with cancer that took her within months of her diagnosis. Leif stayed by my side through the whole weekend, kept me laughing and feeling very loved. I came home yesterday, after errands, to these flowers waiting for me. I am thankful to have such an understanding, caring, and loving man, to always be there for me through both the happy and difficult times.
