21. I'm so sorry for your loss

Fri Dec 23, 2011, 03:34 PM

Dec 2011

The best advice I can give is to fill the holidays this week with as many positive reminders of her as you can. If she has a box of recipes take pictures of each recipe that has special signifigance and go to your local picture place and have them made into picture books for each branch of the family. Nothing brings warmth to the soul like the memories that special foods bring to us.
