*family coloring sessions...
*afternoon resting time with all of us snuggled together in our warm cozy bed...
*a family walk in the chilly afternoon to get sam & will their 1st twinkie...
*preparing dinner all together with sam stirring the salad, will setting the table, and pete just doing whatever he was asked. oh, and not to forget the clean-up... the boys taking their plates to the sink and pete & i working together to do the rest while the boys are dragging out their cars for pretend play right under our feet.
*family games before bed,
*and the cherished bedtime routine of books, prayers, and talking about things.
these are some of the things that i'm certain i would have missed the most if we would have lost pete. i can't comprehend a life without him in it. he has such a presence and influence in our little family. to not have him here is a reality that i'm still grateful that i don't have to comprehend. i just want to work on comprehending how priceless each moment with him really is.

i love this post jen.
this is what its about. and what i was crying about for you last month. i am glad you have it now. you are blessed, so am i. thanks for the continuous reminders.
I did not know that Sam was left handed. Sounds like meal time is a team effort. Good Luck on the enthusiasm.
It makes me dizzy and want to cry just thinking about you guys doing those things without Pete. You always seem to nail emotions just right.
