Wife and Mother and So Missed
Sandi and I on the apartment porch a few years back. She was doing chemo, confident that she would beat cancer, and feeling pretty good at the time. I'd do pretty much anything to have her back here where she belongs.

From A Long Time Ago...
Sandi and I from seven years ago today on an evening when she was feeling pretty good and we still had hope that everything was going to work out right. This picture always made her laugh, because it caught me with my eyes closed. I miss her so much everyday. Today is one of those supremely hard days and is not any easier for being the second time around without her.

Mother's Day 2018
Sandi, on the other hand, thought the day rivaled Christmas and her birthday. To her, it was a major deal and it better be celebrated like the major holiday it was. This is our first without her and it really hurts. Mother's Day was also my early warning reminder that we were about a month out from our anniversary. That is going to be very hard as well.
So, I just wanted to take a moment to wish all the Moms a happy Mother's Day. Even if they don't always say it, know that the people in your life love you and appreciate you.
