I come here many times... just to visit... somehow, I feel closer... these were the steps, the path that only you and I knew G.... and somehow, I feel closer...

I was thinking today that so many of the docs that I am credentialing right now are your age.... I look at their pictures and wonder... what if... what if you had not been sick..... what would you have looked like....what would you have done... if it is any comfort to you.. they all look much older than you did... and the what if's... none of them matter...

I am preparing to sell the house G... it is something I need to do... for me.... I feel empty here.. it is not the way it was supposed to be...don't worry... your rocks will move with me~ and a new garden will be planted..

So much is changing here... yet again.. good thing I am adept to change.... every day I miss you G... yesterday there were a bunch of young folks fishing in your old spot.... no worries... I am sure they have not caught old Marvin... it made me smile as I passed by... the hours spent there... just sitting...

I have not bought you a stone yet G.... I am sure you know that... I just cannot seem to find the right one.. be patient with me....

love you always... Momma~
