Balloons for Our Dad.

One month.  In some ways it seems 
like only moments ago.  In others it
seems like an eternity has passed since
our sweet husband and Dad passed
away.  Most of the time I simply 
do not believe it . . . at.all.
 Today the boys and I took balloons
to one of our very favorite spots.
We wrote notes and attached them
to the balloons . . . 




and let them soar . . . 
It was a bittersweet experience, as
most of them are lately.  Bittersweet.
I feel as though we deserved a "chip"
or something as do those who have
participated in any 12-step program
for 30 days . . . No chip, just a
reassurance that our wonderful 
husband and Dad is where he needs
to be and we are still here on this
earth doing what the Lord intends us
to do. Surreal. Most.definitely.

"As high as heaven rises above earth, so
his gracious love strengthens those who
fear him." Psalm 103:11
