Sorry…
One Sorry *ss Guy
This could very well be the shortest post in the history of Thirty Seconds. I’m just popping in to apologize for not posting in over a week. I have several articles in the works…and for those of you who subscribe to TS (whoa…that little link there is almost subliminal) you know that I’ve started a book.
Know what? Laura always used to say, “Don’t tell people how busy you are. Everyone is busy…so just tell them you didn’t get it done or you’re sorry you’re late.” (She was so genius in her simplicity. I’m glad I remember some of it at least.)
So…let me just say that I am getting after a bunch of things and you will hear from me very, very soon. Until then…thanks for hangin’ with me. I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it: You’re visiting and reading and commenting have done wonders for me…which means it’s done wonders for my kids as well. I sincerely don’t know that I could do this without you. (OK…that’s a bit dramatic. I’d do what I have to do…but you are all making me feel less alone as I do so.)
I’ll talk to you soon!

Your day to day path will keep bringing in her “genius simplicity”. Some you remember now and some you will relearn with experience. She seems great and I hope you don’t forget she isn’t finished with you yet, Andy. You will wrestle thoughts with her in your personal decisions and the ones for your children. She might not be here physically but I know you feel her in your home and in your children and most of all in You. Your children want to remember you and mommy as one. Someone once told me story tellers hold the future. Keep her stories close for your sake and your children. They want to hear about their mommy, mostly from daddy. Let their future not be one missing mommy, but one filled with her hopes and dreams for them. They do not know her the way you did and that is one huge gift you can give to them. Cherish Her. Nice pic. by the way.
Hope…this is an incredible comment. I’m pretty sure I told you once that the future belongs to the story tellers. What a great thing you just did here…taught me back. This is silly but reading what you wrote got to me deep down…where that empty spot is…and reminds me that Laura will always be a part of our lives. It’s what she wanted more than anything…to know that she would forever be alive in this world. And she is. Thank you so much. I’m going to go have a little cry now. Thank you.
