Back home...

I went to Arizona and California. I enjoyed spending sometime with my family. I spent time with my mom's brother and sister. It was really great to hear and share stories of my mom. I miss her so much! I think this might have been one of the hardest times where I had to remind myself that she wasn't here anymore. I would catch myself thinking about taking something back from my trip for her or think about showing her pictures of my trip. It was good to see characteristics of my mom in her brother and sister to remind me of how she was. My husband and I fell in love with Arizona, especially when we came back to rain and temps in the 40's with possible snow. Our kids were happy to see us and Chucks' parents were happy to go back to their own bed.

Char - losing a parent isn't easy! It takes time to heal. Rob still catches himself, three years later, wanting to take something to his dad to show him or to call him...I'm glad you had a good time.

I hope your trip helped in your healing process, you needed the time for yourself. Crystal
