Just remembering one year ago.... We went to a party at a friend's house. We left Abe with his Aunt Beth. It didn't take us long to start missing him, we wanted him there with us. We had a good time with our friends, but our thoughts were still at home. When the clock struck midnight, we toasted and kissed....then were out the door by 12:02. We couldn't get home fast enough. We thought we missed him then....
Cheers to the best and worst year of our lives...so far.

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
when you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
when you are sorrowful look again into your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
I'd wish you a happy new year, and I do wish you a happy new year, but it's just not "happy" without Abe. Love you guys, thinking of you as always. Biggest hugs!
Love, Maggy
It is amazing what this life brings. What you think is your life, can change so suddenly. That is the hardest thing for me about this life- the unknown. I do wish you the best in 2009.
Happy New Year Josh & Jamie.
Yesterday was a hard one for me - i can't even imagine what it's like for you. I was thinking all day about ringing in the new year with abe last year. Remembering how much convincing I had to do to get you guys to go out and have fun...you really didn't want to leave him. Just know that he truly was the only thing that was putting a smile on my face that night - he taught me so much about life and how to love and helped me get through a very hard time in my life. He is very missed and in my heart and thoughts everyday....as are the two of you. I know I say it a lot - but thanks for letting me be a part of your lives. I love you.
Josh that is so true. That sounds like Gibran. :) My hope for you both in 2009 is that you continue keeping Abe alive in all of us by talking about him, writing about him, remebering all those little moments that are so precious, and just being the proud parents that you are. Even when you feel like shit! I know he's with you always, watching over you, and loving you. We're always here for you, too... love you guys so much xoxo
