This weekend

While I am very much looking forward to many fun things we have planned this weekend, I am also dreading it from an emotional standpoint.  Tomorrow would've been my dad's birthday.  Not only will this be the first we haven't been able to celebrate with him, but it would've been his 60th.  The fact that it is a "milestone" birthday certainly doesn't make it easier.  Sunday will also be the one year anniversary of the death of our beloved cat, Piper.  I love how my youngest two talk about her and how they love to remember her.  They do the same with my dad, and it makes me smile.  I know that Robert also has his happy memories, but he is a child who just keeps things a little more to himself.

With all of the emotions that are likely to surface this weekend, I am even more grateful it will be busy and filled with many fun things!
