This past weekend our family experienced the loss of my father. Death is so difficult to explain to the kids especially when it's someone so close. Although, it's an explanation that we all must teach. We realize and explain that the purpose of our life is to grow, develop, and be strengthened through our own experiences. It's to live our lives to the fullest and make the best out of each and every day. We know that our family is strong and that we have each other to help get us through difficult times like death and tragedy as well as to celebrate all of the wonderful times. We take comfort in knowing that he is in heaven with peace and love all around. During this Christmas time the stars seem brighter and the lights seem to twinkle more. We will laugh as we always laughed, play, smile, pray and think of him often. The life that we shared with him is untouched and unchanged. He will continue to be with us in the memories that we have and the traditions that we hold dear. Life continues on……..
