This year will be the second year without you; and the first where I managed to hang up your Christmas decorations. The happiest memories hurt the most, though it’s so good to bask in the memory - I would give up all those memories just to have you with me one more Christmas. You should see Jackie wearing the penguin Christmas sweater you gave her years ago, dancing around with her pregnant belly. You would love it. Coco was going crazy rolling in the wrapping paper, and attacking the ribbons. You would have loved it. Missing you as always Mom, love you.
