My Mom

Thank you for all the sweet notes and emails. For those of you who don't know, I've been in the States with the kids for the past few weeks.  My mom has passed away, but we were incredibly lucky in that we got to spend time with her before she left us. I'm too sad to write anything else.

Peace.

I'm so sorry. I lost my dad over a year ago and I still feel the loss every day. Hope you're surrounding yourself with other important people in your life.

Kate and family - I am so sorry to hear about your mommy. I don't think there are ever any good words to say at times like this. I know when my SIL died the words meant nothing since they couldn't bring her back. But know our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you go through this time and the many years to come!

Hey Kate-very sorry to hear about your mom. I hope that you are able to recall all the good times and cherish them to get you through these trying times. Our thoughts are with you all...

I know the too sad to write feeling and don't worry about it. My mom died very suddenly 6 months after we moved to Iceland (and then I had a complicating medical issue). It ended up being 3 months before I could write more than my name. So, don't fret, just take some time and we are here for you.
