Today I did pretty good. It's been just two weeks since we lost our little girl. I went to the lake with my grandsons today and we stayed really busy swimming and canoeing.
I almost made it through the day without tearing up over my girl. Then my neighbor next door told me how sorry he was that Gigi passed away and tears started to flow out of my eyes. I'm glad I had my sunglasses on so he didn't see how choked up I was becoming.
I wonder how long it will take me to talk to someone about my loss without crying. Two weeks today that my little girl was gone forever.
