Thanksgiving is a time to be with family and friends, but for me, it carries a much more significant meaning. For me, it's when I remember Sara and all the wonderful things she brought to this world.
We recently moved back home to Colorado and packed all of our stuff away in boxes. Well, its been 6 months and so we are now just starting to open some of those boxes, and as we do, I find some great little things that remind me of sara. In a recent box unpacking exercise, I came across all of our board games and of on top was Apple's to Apple's. I think the game was so fun for all of us to play with Sara because logic can be completely taken out, putting Sara in a tizzy.
One item we unpacked early was the book we all made for Sara. We frequently read through it with our son Noah so that he can always remember Sara. It is also a good way for us to teach him about life and that the good people go to heaven. In a way, talking to Noah is how we remember Auntie Sara.
So, as another year goes by, I find that the sadness is lessened somewhat, but the space left behind never really gets filled up.
Happy Birthday Sara!
