I became a widow at the age of 42 on December 10, 2010. After 11 years of marriage to the most wonderful man ever.He was a devoted husband, daddy/dad and Doo-da. His physical presence will be missed tremendously.

School starting
Boy where does the time go? How did we get here already? Made it through a vacation without him. Probably helped that I had my parents with us. My son & daughter-in-law with us. And my 5 wonderful grand children with us. It was a great time. Ted never cared too much for going away & doing nothing. He felt if he were going to do nothing he would rather do nothing at home. But I was missing him the day we got to the house we were renting for a week. It was evening and as I was moving beds together for the kids, I was feeling my loss. And then as I moved the bed again, there on the floor was a penny. I knew he was with me. I have been finding pennies for several months now. There was a period of time from when we first met until we actually started dating. 6 years actually. I used to pick up pennies & wish on them. He was always my wish. After we started dating I no longer picked up pennies. I find them now. Not all the time. And not in very obvious places. The first one I found was in front of our garage after all the snow melted. I had shoveled the spot many times thru out the winter right down to the cement. And no one was allowed to be near the garage at the time (fellow widows understand this). I keep all the pennies I find & write down where I found them. They bring me comfort. So I felt like he was right there with me on that vacation. So school is right around the corner & my little boy is actually excited to go for the first time ever. It makes me glad to see him excited.
