The week begins...

So later today we gather with a few of those that love you so and celebrate you.  We will laugh, we will cry but most of all we will remember.  There are so many wonderful things to remember that it's hard to know where to start.  This week also brings our annual trip to Edisto for our Beaufort and Charleston boat rides for Memorial Weekend.  And yes, Cindy, we'll ride by "your" house on the water as we enter Charleston and smile at how many times you mentioned you love that house.  We'll make new memories as this is Addie's first year to go, Anna's inaugural trip was last year.  We'll take pictures, we'll smile, we'll cry, we'll remember, we'll begin to heal.  But, really, it's because of you that we'll be together-just another of those times that you created and tradition that you started and we get to benefit from so once again Thanks Sista and I love you!

  1. I'm ready for the pain and ready for a lot of uncontrollable tears. AND SO READY FOR MORE AWESOME MEMORIES WITH THE DEAREST PEOPLE IN MY LIFE!

    I've shared a picture of Cindy and "her house" with Karen to post. Be sure to read the caption! (Phil on Modern Family in all his coolness said WTF means "Why the face?")

  2. I couldn't agree more, both with Karen's post and Sally's comment. It continues to baffle me how so much fun and so much hurt can coexist in a weekend, yet how much I am looking forward to it. The waterworks have already begun for me. It is times like these that I truly cannot believe that this is actually reality...how can it be??? As always, and as Karen said, I am thankful-thankful for Cindy's amazing warm spirit that brought us together, thankful for ALL of the memories and "tradinkies" that she created, and for the time that we had.
