Life Goes On

Posted on June 21, 2011 | 15 Comments

In the midst of the sadness of my mother’s passing, we had a houseful (nine of us) here for graduation and end-of-school celebrations and events.

Why yes, we are proud parents!

Muchas gracias to my MIL for taking these last 2 pictures on her camera.

I’m still not back to regular blogging. In part because my heart isn’t quite in it right now, and in part because there is much happening on the home front.  I will stop by and visit when I can manage the time and inclination to do so.

    So glad you’re able to celebrate life in the midst of mising someone who was close to you. I’ve been in that situation not too many years ago, and I know the pain involed.

    Take all the time you need. This seems to be your season of stress and you have much to process. I am still praying for you.

    It’s all a cycle, isn’t it? Your son is marking milestones of his own while other, sadder milestones happen. I wish you much healing.
