This Post Gets No Title...


I know that I have posted this picture at least once before. Sorry.

Today my husband and his brother travel here to scatter the ashes of both of their parents.

I wanted to write more about this, but I find myself, well, a mess.

Please keep them in your thoughts.

    Oh, Julie. What a difficult day for the family. Having lost one parent, I can't imagine the loneliness of losing the other. I'm glad your husband and his brother have each other (and you) to lean on through this.

    I'm sorry they have to do that. I am thinking of you guys right now. I am thinking of Steven and his brother. I can only imagine how your heart must feel heavy for what they're doing.

    Saying a prayer for you guys....

    Big hug,

    Cindy

    I've been coming back to this picture on and off all day. It strikes me that either Steven's mom or dad took it, maybe? The significance of it, well, I almost can't get my head around it, yet somehow it's moved more and more into my heart all day.

    Big big hugs to make it through the day and beyond.

    The older I get, the more I realize how unfair life can be. Ugh... there aren't really words that get across how sorry I am.

    This is a real good reason to be a mess. I'm so sorry. It is such a beautiful picture, and it sounds beautiful that the ashes will be scattered together. I'm thinking of them and of you.
