I am so sorry that you have that same un-fillable hole. I guess you're right, the circumstances really don't matter all that much, the pain is there regardless...but yes, a little warm weather, a walk in the sunshine, bare feet in the hot sand, it could provide a little comfort. Of course, I have a little while longer to wait for that...silly groundhog. Hugs back to you my friend. xo Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072740790042271296.post-46327453569065827652018-02-02T16:44:22.347-05:002018-02-02T16:44:22.347-05:00Oh sweet girl.....I am so sorry to hear this news....Oh sweet girl.....I am so sorry to hear this news. I lost my Mom on a miserable cold day as well, but I could never have told it as well as you did!<br />It leaves a big hole no matter the circumstances.

It's been a tough time and like you, even though we were expecting it (for years) it was still such a shock. We are never truly prepared. Thank you for the prayers, my friend. Thank you also for your lovely thoughts on winter. You know, it's funny, I went to college in a very cold and snowy mountainous region and even though I loved summer way back then, I still enjoyed college and all the winter that went along with it. It was a beautiful area and the cold didn't bother me...plus I learned how to drive like a champ in the worst weather winter could throw at me! I know how lovely Idaho is covered in snow, your photos are a true testament and perhaps one day I will see the beauty in the winter months around me again. After all, there are a lot of them here! xoxo Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072740790042271296.post-10816639413888045092018-01-11T12:33:40.488-05:002018-01-11T12:33:40.488-05:00Oh Amalia, my sweet friend, I will take that big h...Oh Amalia, my sweet friend, I will take that big hug. xo Thank you.Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072740790042271296.post-27501841191221430652018-01-11T12:32:32.713-05:002018-01-11T12:32:32.713-05:00Thank you so much, Debbie.
