Presents for our lost family members
One of my friends who lost her husband spent last night wrapping presents with her children for their dad. This weekend they will visit his grave and put the presents there…they will smile, they will remember the “daft” things he 
did, they will wish him a happy holiday. THe children enjoy the chance to show their love and keep their daddy close….it was hard for my friend at first as the loss and grief was too raw. But now she looks forward to it …..and when it is his birthday as well. She finds it brings her closer to her children, and helps them keep their dad’s memory alive.
Losing a spouse is hard, losing a dad is hard…and each person will find their way of easing the grief.
