WOW...... How amazing it is to think I have to keep doing this with you so far away from me... Maybe not far .. but away from me.. I had to think about Thanksgiving and say.....
Lord, today I am thankful to be here on Earth to serve you... I will try to bear this cross you have given me and do my very best to help my brothers and sisters... You told us in the Bible that your people die due to lack of knowledge..... You have given me knowledge in understanding my only son's death and given me the strength to teach the others so they can share this knowledge and not have to bear the cross you gave me.... I thank you for giving me such a wonderful son to teach me the joys of being a parent. I thank you Lord for granting me the peace of understanding his mistake. I thank you Lord for holding my hand through this time of grief and sorrow... I thank you Lord for taking care of my precious child. I thank you Lord for all of the gifts you now give me that help me in my mission.
Nick, I can't possibly miss you more than I do now.. I know you heard me tell you at the dinner table that I took extra spuds for you!!! You will always be my Spud Stud. The pan on the floor... I know.. hahaha I hope you got the balloons we sent up.. We all missed your laugh, your smile, your loud mouth, your obnoxious amount of mashed potatoes.. hahaha It's all about you.. we miss you...
Next week... The stinking X-mas Tree.... You better be here in spirit to hold me together.. Your sisters will be with me.. Help me Jesus.. Help me Nick...
Still Missing You Ever Single Minute,
Mom
