Feeling Loss

So, it’s been forever since I’ve written, so long I almost forgot about my place to share my thoughts, but not really. Today marks 9 years 4 months since my Betsy has been gone. I felt overwhelming sadness last night. It’s so hard to believe she has been gone so long. And, as I pondered it, I began to focus on her accident, not her life which made me sad. So I began to think about all the amazing things about her. Her love of reading, her comedic sense of humor, her fierce love of learning, and her undying love and loyalty to me. I am not perfect by any means, I made many mistakes as a single parent, but she was always my cheerleader. I really miss being able to talk with her and hear her advice. She was wise. And she was and is loved. ❤ ❤ ❤
