May

The month of May has historically been busy filled with graduations, bridal showers, weddings, Mother's Day, the end of school, ballet recitals, Memorial Day weekend, etc. It could really make anyone's head swim.

A grieving mom has enough on her plate just trying to just cope with the normal days. To be a little honest, the added busyness can be both a welcomed distraction and a bit stressful all at the same time.

While each family is different, we have found a little peace trying to make the decisions with regard to planning events, at the very last minute. We are grateful for those special people in our lives that continue to recognize our difficulties making even the simplest of decisions and have given us the extra grace to just "Be As We Are". Thank you for allowing us to make last minute decisions, accepting us as we are if we do attend, and understanding if we don't.

I am in the midst of heavy traffic. I am in survival mode trying my best to stay afloat and keep our heads above water.
