It just hit me. Whilst we were all playing and being merry. There was one important person not sitting next to my Dad in all the festivities of our family New Years gathering.
Mom wasn't there.
Its been 2 months since her passing.
I didn't realize that the sadness would feel so fresh on New Years.
Cherish your parents whilst you still have them
My sibblings and I just...keep rallying around Dad. We try to make time to spend with Dad as often as possible.
To feel the presence, the space, Where memories live.
