The Cornerstone Challenge: Day Six: Content that Evokes Emotion
For me this morning’s post in The Cornerstone Content Challenge Day Six: Content that Evokes Emotion it was easy to come up with a post. It’s Sunday and the day I used to call my mom and dad. They were divorced and lived in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
I did talk to my mom sometimes during the week but if I we got busy we always knew Sundays would be the day we would chat. But my mom has been gone over 7 years and if Charlie was in Public School he would be starting on Tuesday.
Which when Charlie was in Kindergarten my mom passed at 4 am that Sunday morning and school begin on Monday. For me it’s a hard week and Charlie has been on edge as well and I know it’s because he is missing his grandparents just as I am.
I can’t even pick up the phone and call my dad for him to wish Charlie a great fist day as he passed away in December of last year. David’s mom is trying to keep Charlie and I busy so we don’t dwell on our losses and it is helping some and I am grateful for her but it isn’t the same.

I am so sorry that today is a sad memory day for you, and your son, Glenda! I hope the coming days will be easier.

Thank you, Charlie and I are working towards making things better and we aren’t going to let things keep us down.

I am sure your parents are looking over you and Charlie …
I lost my dad two years ago and I still can’t believe he is gone though I talk to mom as often as I can, but the memories we have sure help..

and for your previous post about Charlie and Aiden – not sure if that comment went thru as I got error ——-
Not being able to meet up with their friends is definitely hard on the kids.. and we do try to figure out ways they can meet safely (but does not happen as often as we really want)
that photo is adorable…

I am so sorry for your loss as well. I try to be better and take the time to talk to my husband’s mom a couple times a week and have Charlie spend as much time with them as possible but it isn’t the same but I do have my sister and brother which helps.

So sorry Glenda but when we lose a loved one we have so many memories in our heart that live on forever. Hugs to you, Charlie and David.
