The little man and I made the day into errand day. We saw Grammy, stopped at work to see how Liz's vacation was and the little man wanted to tell his joke, and shopped for a birthday present.
Then we continued on after Sissy got out of school with a trip to the bank, the dollar store and McDonald's with a play place for dinner. They played so hard and were so sweaty. Does my heart good when they play like that.
We checked our mail early this week. I was kind of hoping they would have mail for the holiday. I had seen a post on facebook from their mom stating how wonderful Valentine's Day was and how much she loved her husband and baby. I never comment on posts like this. She deserves the happiness that you get from relationships. And I thought I needed to check the mailbox just in case she had thought about her other children. Checking was for me and not for them. They never commented at all. They just enjoyed their day with all the things that happened.
It is just a reminder that I can't give them what they lost, but we make a life in the here and now with what we have.
