I blog about my family – to remember the details and to keep the interested parties informed. So if you’re reading this you most likely know me. It isn’t the most enthralling blog in the world – but it’s important to me and mine.
The expressions on both of their faces are just so precious.
When we were at my grandmother's funeral last year, Dermot helped keep things a little lighter. Everyone wanted to know all about him, and my mother kept fussing over him. I think that it helped to keep their mind off of everything. I also think that it helped to see the whole circle of life thing as cheesy as that sounds.
oh, I am definitely sure that this would have been a whole lot harder on your mom had noah not been here. it's crazy how all the cogs in the machinery of life fit together...the timing of things, so that there are comforts like this when you need them.
Mwah, so sweet. That picture totally reminds me of the day my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was sitting up in the hospital bed, my dad was standing by her, crying, (one of maybe two times I've seen him cry), and she was holding Madeline (one month old) on her lap, and smiling through the tears. They really are the best medicine.
The best medicine in the world!! It took me 2 days to put my house back together after having him here for a week, and I still can't wait to see him tomorrow.
Another thought - thanks to all your blogger friends for their kind thoughts. As they all seem to know, You, Mark and Noah are my saving grace right now!!
