One Year

It's been one year today since we got the call in the early hours of the morning that Marcia had breathed her last breath. I still remember the call. I still remember walking into the house that Easter morning. I remember Laurel asking why no one else was crying but her, Robin and Sherry. I remember explaining to Laurel what a funeral service was. I remember helping her write out a tribute to her Mommy for the funeral. It seems like it was just last week, not an entire year ago. How does the time go by so quickly?

There are so many times that I want to pick up the phone and call her. I want so badly to hear her laugh. I want to talk about the kids and what is going on with them. I want to hug her and tell her "Thank you" for being there for Jay when he was struggling. 

I know that she is no longer in pain and for that I am grateful. 

Marcia, I miss you. I love you! I will do the best I can to be there for Laurel and James, although they really just want you. I pray that you are resting in the arms of Jesus. 

Love,
Meredith
