Good morning,
Carol you and I had husbands cut from the same cloth. I miss the laughter, outbursts of song, jokes, stories that took forever to reach the punch line - how I wish I still had to wait for those punchlines – and the love we received and gave.  

How thoughtful that Ken gave you the kittens - reminders of him and of love and they make you smile as he did. We have a little - well little old, as she is 10 - Yorkie who has me trained to give her a little bit of food at the end of a meal as my husband Henry would have. Animals have seemingly unconditional love.

NatR - where do those memories come from eh? They seem to pop out at unexpected times - how on earth can our brain file them all!!

It's the first anniversary of another community member RDs' husband's death today. She wrote, 
"A lot has happened in the last year.  I have sold our house and moved to a condo in a different city.  I have ventured out to family by plane, had the car serviced and so many other things I had never done before.  I don't cry as often and I have learned to cope.  I've made some new friends but mostly I have done it alone. It's been a tough journey and I miss him so much."

By invitation not expectation – could you think about sharing your kitten story with her Carol?
