    Beautiful.

    I’m so sorry. I’ve been reading here for the past couple weeks and have been praying and will continue to. I’ve cried some tears too. I’m just so sorry. I can’t imagine what you are going through. My husand and I are your and bj’s age and have kids, it really has scared me. We just never know. I do know she’s better now and in peace and will always be right there with you and her boys. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

    So very beautiful…

    I’m so very sorry.

    I crumple up in grief for your family every time I read a post. (Or see it, in this case.) Your writing is so beautiful and honest. Thank you for sharing your story, your love, and your grief.

    I have a Gabe also–he’s my spunky middle child, much younger than your Gabe. I’ve been hugging my boys a lot lately. Thank you for that too.

    I don’t think you know me but it doesn’t matter. I’m an online friend of Thordora who posted about your loss.

    I’m so very sorry.

    Ann

    One of the things I love about this picture is you can kinda see the glass art she drew on our back door. Ignore the one on the window, thats an eye of Sauron that MastaG drew.
    Our front door has a cherry tree drawn on it.

    THIS is why I ask people to take photos of themselves even when they don’t want to. There is so much beauty and love there. Thank you for sharing her with those of us who found your site too late to know her in person.
