Four years ago

Four years ago today, our dear friends lost their six-month-old son.  I am amazed by how quickly time passes.  They have had two more children, a little boy who was born about 9-1/2 months later, and a daughter who is ten-months-old.  This family is so special to me.  Shortly after my dad passed away, I learned that Dad had sent an email to Mark (the baby's father) less than a half hour before he died.  Mark was the last person Dad communicated with...and it was a work email.  We always knew that Dad would work right up until the end!

While in some ways it's harder this year because Dad and his best-friend (baby's grandfather) have passed away, there is also some comfort in knowing that they are together again.
