Steve would have been 46 today

ByKaren

I have amazing friends. I spent the day with some of them and we had a great time. We went to dinner and we celebrated Steve.

We know he was there with us because a song he loved, that we were talking about earlier today, came on while at dinner. Then we saw a boat similar to the one his parents owned while he was growing up. We all agree that was him telling us he was there.

Thank you for all the birthday wishes for him, all the texts and love you all sent us today. It really helps and I appreciate it so much!!!

“How are you doing”

ByKaren

I know most days it appears that I’m fine, but I am not. I am still very fragile, sad, lonely and missing Steve.   I wish sometimes I could hang a sign around my neck asking people to be sensitive to me, think about what they are going to say and consider keeping it to themselves. But I can’t. Unless you’ve grieved the loss of someone as close as a spouse, there is no way to know how it feels, and I don’t expect anyone to, nor do I want anyone I love to know how it feels, but it does still hurt and I think about him every single day. Yes, I need help from time to time. I’m doing this alone, I have…

A Visit In My Dreams…..

ByKaren

My husband Steve visited me last night, in my dreams. He was laying in a bed, and I touched his arm and asked him for a kiss. I told him I knew this wasn’t real so I wanted a kiss. He laid there and smiled at me. It was a nice visit.

Day Two of Spring Break School Vacation {Daddy’s Birthday}

ByKaren

It’s Day two of the girl’s Spring Break and today we celebrated my husband’s birthday.   We usually go out for dinner to celebrate a birthday but we couldn’t tonight because Holly had softball practice and Allison had soccer practice so since the girls are home today, we decided to take Daddy to lunch for his birthday.   He chose Gregg’s and no one minded.  They have a special on Tuesday that when you order from the regular menu you get a drink and a desert for an extra $3.50.  That’s a great deal since the drinks alone are $2.50 and the desserts are $6.  So we took two slices of cake home to celebrate daddy’s birthday after practice. Happy 43rd Birthday Steve!  xoxo Holly has…

Cowgirl Boots are COOL when you are 7

ByKaren

  Cowgirl boots are cool when you are 7 and 37.  But this 7 year old recently discovered just how cool they are!  Holly received the above pink cowgirl boots a few years ago from a friend – they were a hand me down.  They didn’t fit her and pretty much were pushed to the back of her closet.  One weekend I cleaned our her closet and they resurfaced again and………… she hasn’t taken them off since. This picture was taking on her 7th birthday and the bus driver thought she got these boots for her birthday.  I explained that they were old and had been ‘rediscovered’ after some cleaning. Holly wanted to wear them to school but I said ‘No, your feet will hurt…

Day Five of Spring Break School Vacation {Birthday Party}

ByKaren

Today was day 5 of the girl’s spring break and the last day (not counting the weekend).   To end the week we had a birthday party for Allison at AC Moore.  She had her party there last year and loved it so much she asked to go there again.  I don’t mind because not only is it affordable, but the staff is great and she can pick her own craft. Before we began, she had them write their name on the table (which was covered with kraft paper) and also to draw a picture.   A lot of her friends drew pictures of zebras which I thought was adorable! Finally it was time to start the craft.  She choose to make a parachord bracelet but I…
