We headed home this weekend to meet with our estate planning attorney and given everything we have been through- to think that something could possibly one day happen to Ted and I makes this entire process very difficult. "nothing will happen during your travels to Europe" everyone says. But in my world, anything is possible and we must be prepared.
Christina, Aydan and I went to visit my Grandfather. It's just sad, that is all I am going to say. I just can't help but think how my parents would feel and how they would be here for him.
It's funny, I am learning more each and every day how much I was like my Dad. "He couldn't handle stuff"....flying, blood, sick, death, mushy stuff.....much like me.
My Mother, much like my Sister, wore her heart on her sleeve.
We all gathered at the Close's house this weekend for a barbecue. Elle is still a tad under the weather and we think the official teething marathon has begun.......
We spent time with Family and made the trip back this morning. Above is a pic from this weekend (Aydan and I) and a few additional pictures from Elle's photo shoot. We have soooo many to share.
On a very happy note, one of my best friends gave birth to a beautiful healthy boy a few days ago and another one of my best friends welcomed her first niece to the world. Very exciting. I so know what these new Mom's are going through right now. And the only advice I would send their way would be to enjoy every minute of it........thinking of you Ali, we love you!
I have a heavy heart tonight for my Parents, my Grandfather, my Brother, and my Aunt.....
Life is tough and tragedy has changed our lives but miracles are still happening every single day, I miss you all.
Melissa
