Charlie Brown

Each year the kids love to watch Charlie Brown Christmas ... because it's something that Daddy John watched every year and it reminds them of him. Well, it's on tonight at 8:00. They are so excited! They keep reminding me that it's on and can hardly wait.

I'm having very different emotions than they are...
I'm sad.
I miss John.
I'm crying.
I remember watching Charlie Brown Christmas with him, even before the kids were born, when they were too young to understand, and when they grew to enjoy it as much as he did.
I wish he could watch it with the kids.
I wish the kids could watch it with him.
I'm grateful that they remember this part of their dad.
I'm grateful that he was able to create this memory with the kids.
It blesses me that they are excited about this memory that they have with their dad.
I thought we missed the show this year ... I'm glad we didn't.

John and I's wedding anniversary is in 2 days ... I'm sad... I miss him ... I'm grateful that I was able to share a part of my life with him ...

I miss him ...
