Thank you Teresa for thinking of me and thanks Connie & Rj.
I decided to make the cake Saturday but I started out horrible on Sunday and had to leave the house and be by myself for a few hours.  Came home around 4:30 and my daughters were here.  My husband had grilled some chicken and sausage and made a big salad.  I had grabbed 2 pizzas on the way home not knowing if anyone would be here and as soon as I got home my son's daughter and her mom and 3 other kids came. They haven't been here all together for 3 years.  They all ate, then we sang Happy birthday and had the cake.  Everyone then wrote a little message on a balloon and his daughter released them.  It wasn't a happy time, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.  Hopefully next month will be quiet for his anniversary though.  I think it's harder for my husband when we do these things.
I pray you all find a gentler, kinder week ahead.  We sure do deserve one, don't we?

Teresa, that post says it all and not being able to say goodbye is one of the hardest things for me to deal with.

I'm happy you have been concentrating on the 'today'.  The past week has been a torment on me but today I seem okay so far.  Grateful.  

Still wondering though about Sunday.  Should I do anything or just try to ignore the day.  Bake his cake or not.  I haven't made this cake since his last birthday with us but for some reason this year I keep thinking I should make it.  Oh, the craziness.

Hope all are having a kind day.  My prayers and blessings are with you all.

Love the deers Dolly.  Nature does has a calmness to it.  We are fortunate to have deer and turkeys roaming through the woods here.  The deer are very cautious but the turkeys are bold.  My son and husband always hunted right behind our home so when hunting season starts it brings bittersweet memories.
Enjoy those signs whether they are from God or Brandon they are there to calm you.

Look what we saw at the mountain house last week... about 15 feet from our side door... the baby was still not weaned but from time to time would nurse from his mama.. she watched us VERY closely as we tried to get their picture from inside the house through the glass window of the inner door and the screen in the outer door... so its not a great quality picture, but the subject is priceless I think... I have NEVER seen a baby deer this small so close to the house and have only seen one other in all the years we have had this place, and that one was in the road on the way over the mountain.. AND both showed themselves after Brandon died.. as did many other creatures that had not let us see them before... as if Brandon sent them... or God sent them.. to comfort us or bring us a glimmer of joy again...
