- -and there is sadness in our space - - We have lost the fun of our Son Eddy , in our lives.
A very sudden passing - - and the shock of it almost unbearable. But Bear it we do -and will.
We try daily to concentrate on all those things about and with Eddy that we have - to be so thankful for , and which give us wonderful memories. We are thankful that today would have been his 2nd year anniversary of Sobriety! His 6th month of smoke-free living!
We are thankful that the past Holiday season was spent with so many days with him , right here with us in our home - while his brother , Johnny also visited us.What fun ! What laughter! what craziness!
We're thankful that we were with him on February 8th - to celebrate my birthday, and had such a fun and GOOD visit! I am thankful for the book he "Gifted" me with - titled "Listening is an Act of Love" -but a little angry with him for not signing it as he usually does :)
But that's ok --I'll get over it. I'll treasure all the other books that ARE signed lovingly!
So - this is just a little "therapy" for me -- and to help me remember to be thankful - always - for the sparkle and zest for living that our first son so often brought into our lives. His Dad will miss, so very much, their hour long (or more) telephone talks about cooking, shopping for the cooking, cars, Bicycles (and putting them together:) - that took place at least once a week!
We'll miss his visits to our place in Show Low that he loved so much! We'll miss SO much of Eddy!

I will miss silly made up songs, constant interuptions and tangents, crying over life's beautiful moments (i.e. his grand baby singing all the words to a pretty lullaby) on the way to the next grocery store, the way he smelled, the one hour conversation Sat. morning followed by the two hour conversation Sat. night, his laugh, his joy, even his pig headedness. I love your blog. It is good.
