While my sister is away, all of her children will celebrate another year of life. Dom's birthday came and went, and we were fortunate enough to see her the day before his actual birthday, which made the celebration a little less somber. Now as Thanksgiving quickly approaches I find myself reaching for my phone to text my sister menu ideas, only to be brought back to the sad reality that she won't be with us tomorrow.
Setting all selfishness aside, I can come to terms with the fact that she won't be there tomorrow. I know she's handling her business and sacrificing to make her life better for herself and more importantly her family. But I can't help but thinking how I would feel if I was in the kids' shoes. What would I think? How would I feel?
