Remembrance Sunday

Today is Remembrance Sunday at church...and that is why I didn't go.  It is a celebration of those who have passed on in the past year, and I couldn't stand the thought of sitting (and sobbing) through that.  One year ago today was the very last visit I ever had with my Dad.  It was truly such a fun afternoon full of so much laughter.  The kids enjoyed themselves, we got a lot done for my parents, and it was just such a great afternoon.  I am very grateful to have had that experience, but I am also realistic about my emotions, and I prefer not to cry like that in public.  I am very grateful to my husband for understanding.
