It’s been a year since my parents died within 5 weeks of each other. Many, many times I have wished that I could ask them what they thought about this or that. Unfortunately, neither of them wrote down their thoughts – well my dad did in the form of sermons, but they have all disappeared. As so many before me, I wish I had asked more questions and listened better.
My husband, Russ, has given our children a gift in his art and poetry. This blog is my attempt to share some of my thoughts too – for now and for posterity. I hope that I can do it in person for a long time to come, but ya never know. So, here goes…
Good for you , Sydney. I’m doing something similar, only different format–transcribing and electronically filing all my letter,daries and journals of the past 50 years.

Karol, Your letters, diaries, and journals will be way more interesting than mine. Ah, time marches on, doesn’t it.

I’ll do my best to keep up with your musings. I blogged during our journey to Laura. It was therapeutic, a valuable means of communication, and has become a hugely valuable way to remember those times.

Thanks, Jennifer. I so wish that I had my dad’s sermons and something of my mom’s. Hindsight is 20/20, right?
