I felt many of the same things you are feeling right now. I can tell you...it does get easier. I still have days when I feel like I can't breathe from missing them so much. Keeping you in my prayers my friend. I am here if you need to sound off.STILLMAGNOLIAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07453175923858351452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-40344501490843321592014-08-20T20:39:47.157-04:002014-08-20T20:39:47.157-04:00So beautiful, Mary.

And you never know, you might just be helping someone else who is going through the same thing.<br />I have always loved that quote.
