i had gotten a card from canada. i didn’t open it til today. i had to work myself up to it because it was from Shawn’s mother. I knew in my heart this wasn’t going to be an easy card to read. I was very close to his family, i loved him for a long time and hence i loved his family too. His mom and dad are really really great people, as is his grandmother and i think of them often.  i read her card and cried. i didn’t want to cry, but have you ever wanted to do something and it just became impossible? she wrote a wonderful little letter and sent a new picture of their granddog...roxy a little chocolate lab puppy. in the picture she is playing with josie, their white lab whom i miss very much as well. it’s funny how you grow close to people and their pets. she wrote as if i was just on my way and nothing had changed. this is what made it hard. she even signed it your second mom and how she misses tea with me...i just don’t know what to write to her or what to think. i miss her very very much as i miss his whole family, dog included.....i just should have left this card un-opened. then i wouldn’t have cried today.
