We occasionally try to escape our house hoping that being away from all the memories, pictures, and sloths will take our minds off grief. Maybe a trip to the beach, like we did last weekend. Yet grief follows us. When I see a funny sign, I think Robbie would have laughed, taken a picture, and posted it online for his friends. Everywhere we go I think of Robbie. This month has arrived and we can’t stop the overwhelming feelings we have as we approach Robbie’s first anniversary in heaven.

My friend said about her father after he died…he is “safely” in heaven. There is something very comforting about picturing the people I love….safely in heaven…<3
