December 2nd Marks my mom's 7th anniversary.
December 1st Marks the 7th anniversary of the last time I spoke/saw/hugged her. She passed in the night and my dad told us in the morning when we woke up for School.
December 1st is also my husband's birthday so it kinda helps take my mind off it a little bit.
I hate December. The Holidays help a little bit, but sometimes it's a reminder she isn't here to enjoy them with us.
I was 13 when my mom passed and I knew Santa wasn't real. I knew my dad and mom always stuffed each others stockings and I got my brother and sister to go 3rds with me on stocking stuffers for him. He was so happy when he woke in the morning and saw that!
I am sorry that Dec is such a hard month. For me it is kind of but mostly it is the last two weeks of March that make me want to stay in bed all day. I know how hard the holiday's are, but think about the next few years and how special they are going to be with your new little one. It's hard for me but I have found that if I do some of the same stuff my mom did during the holiday season it helps a little. There are so many good memories at least for myself of the Christmas season that it helps me get through the hard times. I wish you luck and if you need anything let us know we are here for you.
( hugs) i'll be thinking of you and hoping the month isnt as bad this yr...
