For all who visit here during this difficult couple of weeks, thank you for remembering and thinking about Wendy. It is like yesterday and yet seems forever since we have heard her laugh, seen her face, had great conversations with her and perhaps most of all – felt her hugs and shared her love. There is no way we can suggest to you how to get through this difficult time of the year. There is no right way nor is there any one way for all. All I can offer are some personal moments. It is such a special feeling when we find something new up at Wendy's place – thanks to whoever planted the real sunflowers, loved the pumpkin, the special frog, etc – thanks to all of you very special people. Do something special for yourself and in Wendy's memory and share your moments with those who visit here. Post a note, leave a story – it brings a memory to us all. We know you may shed a tear – but then enjoy a laugh or at least a smile when you think of Wendy. Help us to celebrate her life, her memory, her birthday – and we will all have the support we need to get through this time of the year. Please know that we are ever grateful to all of you who help us in remembering Wendy. Your love, thoughts, notes and kindness sustain us on the worst days and make us smile on the better days! Wendy's Mom
