Forging ahead...

Aah, the wonder of a weekend away, especially a weekend with friends who in an instant can understand your pain. They have been there too. They are standing in the rain as well. We talk about all sorts of things, knowing full well, there are no pat answers. We share some of the things that are helping us on this journey. I feel like we are all standing under a big umbrella for a while and are almost laughing. We almost have a sense that the sun is coming out...

And the joy of soaking in the hotel hot tub, shopping for bargains, enjoying good food and drink and just hanging out, such a treat....

What Sharon and I both know is that our daughters had influence on many lives. The wonderful 7th comment left on the "Laurie" picture blog entry, reminded me again. Sharon has had many of Nikki's students sending notes, making tribute portraits...we may not have our girls here on earth but we have the knowledge that they are missed; they made their mark!
