Life With Boys

The mis-adventures of two crazy boys and their bleary eyed parents.


A year and a day …

A book I listened to lately said it takes a year and a day to mourn the loss of someone you love. I don’t know if I buy into that or not, but here we are a year later. My heart still aches, but it’s true that life does go on. But I doubt I’ll ever miss her any less.

  1. “A year and a day” doesn’t work for Mothers. Perhaps because we all need a little mothering from time to time. She loves you and is near you. You will remember her fondly always. Cherish your opportunity to again participate in the special mother-child relationship with your own boys. Your grandmother, my mother, would have turned 97 this last Tues Jan 2. She also loved you very much and is watching over you.

  2. Danielle- I have been thinking about you daily since Christmas and want you and your family to know you are in my thoughts. The mark Lani left on this world has not even begun to fade, nor will it. It is timeless, just like she was. I love you!-

  3. i don’t buy into that either. i lost my mom over 9 years ago and i don’t feel that i miss her any less. all i can say is that you learn to live with it. some days will be hard, others won’t be so bad yet then you almost feel guilty for not feeling bad.

About Me

I started this site so my mom could get news about her grandkids without me having to walk her through the process of trying to open and email attachment several times a week.  Since then she has passed away and I’ve fallen off the blog wagon, but I’m inspired to pick it up again now.
