Holy hell I miss her so much...even five years later. Maybe it's the holiday and how they weren't there. Not sure why that hit me so full in the face - perhaps that's why I've been sad today. <br />I am so sorry for your sadness...love you big!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-56727592234147869032014-11-28T16:21:51.766-06:002014-11-28T16:21:51.766-06:00Oh, that was a sad one.
