Spring is coming and the ground has softened long enough for Jeff to change out the Christmas decorations to spring colors. We still await the permanent marker for our dear boy's grave. I have been sad so often lately thinking about him and missing his funny antics. Here I am, 7 months without him physically present in my life and a memory can still hit me unexpectedly and bring me to tears.

Sally, the lump in my throat is back as I look at the gaily flying colors. I miss him too. He is never far away from my thoughts. Hugs xo
I don't know how seven months could possibly have gone by already. It seems like yesterday. The spring colors look nice. It will look even nicer when the grass greens up and Josh's stone is put in. I hope all is well with you guys and that Jeff's knee is healing up. Keep adding to the blog, we love to see what happing with you. We miss you. Love, Julee
ditto ditto ditto you guys! I have been sad thinking about Joshua too, and I was sad to see the grass all brown. Our grass stops growing in the winter, but it stays green. It will look so nice again when it greens up. Spring is coming so it will be greening soon. Sometimes 7 months seems like a long time, but then it seems like it was just a week or so ago, or maybe 1 month, not 7. I guess life is that way, and the days keep passing, and we somehow find a new kind of normal, but it will always include Joshua and often the tears will come. Thankfully there are smiles too, but the happy memories are always shadowed by the present desire to see him and have him with us again.
And yes, do keep posting on your blog. It is always GREAT to see your photos and hear your news!!! Love you guys and miss you, Kelly :D
P.S. I love the flag in the center of the decorations! Good job Jeff!!!! :D
