Just this past week was Cody's angelversary.. Life keeps going. We are doing our best. Casey is living back here with me and it is very comforting to have him here. I am trying to help him cope and I see his sadness. It breaks my heart. We went to the Short's on Sunday to do a balloon release and sent a few lanterns up. It was a special and sad night. Thank you to the Short's for having us.
I am busy working on foundation things. We did our Super Hero Day on the 15th. It was another success. I am touched beyond words at what various schools do to keep Cody's memory close to heart. HSW teacher and former teacher of Cody's had the kids do presentations to the Social Studies classes. Some kids wore super hero costumes and greeted the buses. HSE and the physical education department raised funds by having the kids write the name of a super hero in their lives on a super hero thingy and they were hung up in the main hallway. Casey and I visited the schools and it was so heartwarming. Cody will not be forgotten. On the 18th, Casey and I spent the day together. It was hard in so many ways. Casey has not witnessed the love and support we have here so I think he might be overwhelmed. It is all so hard to wrap our heads around this, the 3 years just flew by and yet it seems like yesterday. I am thankful and blessed to have everyone here. I feel the love. I will continue to pray for those that left us and for those battling. I have met some amazing families along the way. My bonds with the friends I have here are stronger than ever. Yes, I have changed, but how could I not?
Thank you all and enjoy the holidays with your families. XOXOXO
