Running on Empty

 

For us, August is the start of celebrations. Our wedding anniversary (30th this year) and my best friends birthdays. Then comes my Birthday in September. Ron's Birthday in October and Lucie's Birthday in November. 

I've been reflecting on the last 14.5 years, people/friends have come and gone. It's bound to happen. My circle is small. I hold those who care close to my heart. There are my tried and true friends who are always there for me which I am ever so grateful for. And then there were my big girls.

Day in, day out. Absolute utter devotion and love. And it went both ways. This was my happy place.

After we let Lucie go, I was clinging to Addie like there was no tomorrow. Until there wasn't.
