Tuesday Night

It's just a Tuesday night….another night alone.  Tomorrow is just another Wednesday.  The sun set tonight and will rise tomorrow… another day without you.  They have gotten easier.  I feel stronger.  The sadness is still there. It fills my mind in quiet moments, makes my heart ache at "milestone" moments, makes me cry at unpredictable moments.  Yet I am becoming more comfortable in my new normal.  The memories remain strong, but the future finds its way to the forefront more and more every day.  I sometimes long for help with the decisions for tomorrow, yet other times find a little joy in the thought that I can do what I feel is best and right… or simply what I want to do.  As I continue to carve the path that is my future, my children's future, our daughters future, I know you are here with me step by step.  I think perhaps I am walking a little more on my own now, without your help, but I know you are always watching over us.  So as I gather things tonight, wrap presents, stuff stockings and have a silent toast to you…I miss you a little more on this not so ordinary Tuesday night.  I love you, and I miss you… more and more every day.  Merry Christmas my love.  

Good night my friends.
