My Jenji.

On Monday I got this card from Jen. She often sends beautiful cards but this one was so sweet in it’s simplicity. Luca was there when it arrived and asked what it said so I read it out. His response was “Why is it so short? What does it mean?” So I just said “Well you know when you’re little and you have the yummiest ice block on a hot day and you’re really loving it but then it falls on the floor and it’s the worst thing ever?”. He said yep and I then said “Well you know how awful you feel, Aunty Jennifer is saying that when I have really sad times like that, she will be there for me.” He got it and was happy with my explanation
 
Afterwards, I really pondered how perfect her card was. That such a simple child-like analogy could be so very fitting for what has happened – and to describe the unfaltering support she has given since my phone call to her at 3pm on February the third.

 
Thankyou sweetheart, your card was a gift to start with but explaining it was an ever nicer one. La la love you.

    Sorry that was me that deleted my comment.

    That card is so fitting but I wish there was no need.

    I am so glad that I have ‘met’ you Sheye, but I wish under different circumstances.

    I find I live in denial most of the time and try to ‘forget’. How silly does that sound when tou actually write it.

    Love to you and Jen,

    Having friends who are there for you to just ‘be’ as you pick up the pieces of the hurts of your life is a beautiful gift. Even in our pain I often see that beauty transcends circumstance. And opens my eyes and heart to love and seek Joy again. That is when the fireflies start to appear- even in the midst of grief. Always thinking of you…and praying for you on your journey in life.
