March is a pretty good month. April comes and we have another birthday that we celebrate without the main guest. April 22nd is Mal's birthday. We will celebrate it just as we do for Lezlie. With cake. With pretty pink flowers and with people being kind in her memory.
I still have a hard time with March. It is still another month without Lezlie. Regardless.
I am just getting through Feb 28th and wham, here comes March.
March has a birthday to celebrate and that belongs to my nephew Will. I, of course, forgot about the party so I am pretty sure I am going to have to give him a million dollars but hey, he is my favorite ( as he likes to point out).
Will and Luke are pretty awesome. They absolutely loved Lezlie and, they still do. Luke even has a special bond with her as, she visits him and talks to him. She used to do it a bunch and I believe she found her way to Redwood.
I always know if they need to ask me about something serious, the text starts out Keke....then it gets serious.
You could not ask for two better boys. And, that is the absolute truth regardless of them being my nephews.
But, what lies ahead beyond birthdays etc., are days still filled with a void because she isn't here. She is missing so much. She is missing handing gifts out her fave cousins. She is missing watching them grow up. She is missing so much but yet, she is watching it all. I know she is proud of them and I know she misses them. But, she will see them again just like she will see Me. I promise you that.
So, even though what lies ahead is going to be hard to handle, I have two nephews in addition to quite a few others, (zach even though he won't admit it) to get me through. I get to watch them all grow up and, Lezlie is probably smiling big thinking of them and watching. (and visiting Luke when she needs to).
Proverbs 31:25 "Laugh without fear of the future."
