You're a person, AT and you need that human interaction and companionship WITH an adult. There's a certain kind of attention you get from a ladyfriend that you haven't had in a while and you don't really get from friends (and no, I don't mean THAT). Good for you. I'm happy for ya.

You're doing just fine. No one looks at you like a wounded animal - just as a person, a friend. I'm glad you have someone that makes you smile. You deserve it. Keep on keeping on, man.

Funny, I can remember leaving you at the baby setter or dropping you off at the school bus stop at Red Food parking lot. I like thinking about those days. But I like spending time with my grown up son(s) too! You'll feel the same when those boys grow up. Look forward to seeing you all on the camping trip!

How can someone. I only know what you write on this blog. What I have learned for me, is that your sons are so fortunate that YOU are their dad. I would have liked a dad like you. I also think your ladyfriend, is fantastically lucky as well. If anything shows in the last year of this blog, it's how much and how well you love. I hope the one I love, loves me that much.

That is how life seems to work, just odd. You seem like you are doing just what you need to do and its working. That is good. And the heat makes me feel like crap too. “Odd, odd, odd.” That is how life seems to work, just odd. You seem like you are doing just what you need to do and its working. That is good.

You don't have to be anything for anyone (other than a dad to your boys, and you do that better than anyone else could). So, screw the 'widower' label. You didn't feel like you had to behave a certain way, or answer questions in a certain way before, so why now? Try to be kind and patient with yourself, and keep riding the wave.

I felt the same way when I started seeing The Bob... I was really pretty sneaky about it because my friends and family were really not ready for me to move on from EB, even though he would have wanted me to do exactly that. Just keep doing what you are doing... and kudos to the LF for walking your lifepath with you and the boys. No one can understand what this life is until they have to live it... as I have said many times. Nothing has ever been the same since that day in October when that Dr. told me that they "lost" him (btw, I told him to look harder, he probably left on his own). There's a new normal now, a two part life that bisects on that day. Nothing will ever be the same, but it's not a bad life. It's just not the same as the old one. I frequently hear in my head "make new memories but keep the old, one is silver and the other's gold". Just keep living, everyone else will catch up! AT-

It's ALL so unpredictable. I think you've handled everything with so much grace (sorry if that's not seen as a masculine word, but I think if you have grace, it'll get you through just about anything) and dignity. I can't imagine your boys being any luckier than having a dad like you. That’s the thing about life. It’s ALL so unpredictable.

“”Courage is grace under pressure.”
~ Ernest Hemingway

If Hemingway, the quintessential manly-man, can use the word “grace,” I’m guessing it’s a masculine word.

Just sayin’.

Just like Pigpen's made a happy transition to his new school, you're sort of doing the same yourself, and doing very well. Like Joel said, keep walking toward the sunshine.
