With Gratitude

November 1, 2009

It feels impossible to tell all of you how grateful I am for the kind words that you have left or sent. I wish there were a way that I could reach through the computer to hug each of you and let you know how much you all mean to me, and to my family. Your words gave me true comfort, and there is no way to describe how much that helped.


The week is over now, and a new one is beginning, and that is the only place to start from. New. My family came together for the first time yesterday (my husband had been traveling through last week), and it is good to have a small cocoon to enjoy each other in. We have decided to stay in our bed, under the covers, play games, read and get ready for the week ahead. We had a really nice Halloween yesterday, and I have lots to share for tomorrow.

I hope that you all had a great holiday weekend, that you are enjoying some quiet time and that your weekend ends beautifully.

Again, thank you. Thank you for your love and friendship and care. You are the most amazing Circle of Stones

Oh Heather, I was so glad to see you back. I've missed you and been thinking of you often.

Enjoy your cocoon with your boys. Nothing heals sadness like Love.

Love Julia

So happy to hear that you guys were able to spend some much needed quality time together. So much easier to count your blessings when they are curled up in bed with you!

I've thought about you every day this week – it's inspiring to see you are working through this in such a mindful way. Keep taking it easy – although your halloween post looks fraught with activity – what lucky boys!

sounds like you were right where you needed to be, cuddled with your family. Continue to take time to mend and heal while you're loving those around you. hugs.
