Today I am trying harder to do better.
Today I pointed out a yellow mustang to my boy. We played with trucks. And I really played along. We talked of tools and I watched a baby face light up with enjoyment when I told him the fix it stories of his great grandpa and tools.
Today, I did not let my daughter see me cry. I told her I was just as excited about the Easter bunny. And I am. We celebrated her last day of school this morning. Then sent her to school giggling.
--------------------------------------------
I will take Easter and notice the sparkle in their eyes. It is a time I cannot get back. I will make an April Fool’s Day joke with her before she goes to sleep. I will dance tomorrow with both of them.
I am doing differently. Grieving differently. Trying to regain footing and I think slowly getting there… or at least moving in the right direction.
