Hi Rob, Thanks for checking in... I'm doing okay. I woke this morning to a phone call at 6am from my S12 - and that was wonderful. He sounded very happy and excited - and I took it as a reminder of how one should live in the moment and take full advantage of the present no matter what..
That's not to say the sadness is gone - I miss him terribly - but also know that we can talk anytime - and that he'll soon be online so we'll be able to video chat.
He's got tryouts for a soccer team tomorrow - which should be a blast for him - and it seems that a lot of the kids who will be going to school with him live in the same neighborhood.
As for me...I've got work to do today - which is good - and am hoping to be able to take S2 to a kid's concert tonight in Pasadena (provided that B finally responds to my request).
So...I miss my S12 a lot - his absence is so obvious - but I know that I have to make this work - and cannot allow that sadness to overwhelm me. I felt a lot of it yesterday - and today I feel a more calm and directed.
