Don't know if you should call, hug us or ask about our plans for the holidays. These are the million dollar questions. So many big events happened in a short amount of time a year ago. Joe's birthday, Christmas and then his death the first part of January. This is truly a rocky road, but for us we have decided what is important, and that is to be together.
First is we will not be at home for Joe's birthday. It will be a time for us to huddle around and remember a son and a brother in a different location. We will be home for Christmas with my parents, my niece, John, Tony and David; frankly because we cannot bear the thought of celebrating without them.
Then we will remember all the incredible acts of kindness towards our family over the past years. Without your love and support our family would have never found a way to put one foot in front of the other.
So on December 21st, Joe's birthday, we will take one more step towards healing. Just one foot in front of the other....
