One Month

It's been a month now since we said our final goodbyes to Collin. Again, it is that odd time thing (seeming so long, yet so short at the same time) but that's ok. It was nice to check into the names in the sand site and find today, that Collin's was posted. It actually says that it was posted several days ago but this morning was the first that I saw it. I think it's beautiful!


I don't have a lot more for tonight. I'm just kind of tired. My parents came down, very last minute, yesterday. We went to a benefit for one of her oldest friends. They've been friends since school days, were in each others weddings... you get the idea. Last month they lost everything in a house fire. They got out with their lives which is the most important of course, but that was it. So it was one of those nice, give our support and love kind of things and so easy since they live two tiny towns to our east.

Today, we took my parents to breakfast and the wildlife refuge. We always see something different so that was fun. But, needless to say, I'm pretty tired! I'm looking forward to this next week. Finishing up projects that I started and getting started on other new ones! Rylan has decided that he wants to keep the vintage airplanes (yay!) so now it's just furniture and paint for him. And then??? Then we may move on to the kitchen!

Thinking about you on these painful days of remembering. I know the dates are important. They always will be. I know it helps for others to stop and remember the dates too. They won't always be so intense, but they'll always be important. Just want you to know I remember with you. I remember Collin. He's leaving his little "life prints" on my heart.
