Today does hurt. It's a reminder of what I've already lost and how bad it could get.
So, instead, I am choosing to focus on what I have to be thankful for.
As I said on my thread, my almost 2yr old daughter is wearing a special v-day outfit that my mom got her. She is soooo cute today. This morning, she only wanted me to hold her. And, before I left, she asked to give me a hug. And, she blew me a kiss. I asked her to be my valentine and she said "yes"!! How lucky am I?
And, we're all here, able to type on computers and we have each other's support. I don't think any of us are starving to death, we're worried that we DON'T HAVE TO BUY A GIFT today!! Listen, we all have lots to be thankful for. What do you have? Things could be better, but life is GOOOOD!
Thanks ironman! You know you are right. As hard as today is (especially hearing it from my wife directly this morning), I do have things to be thankful for. I am taking care of my 6 month old S tonight and will get to kiss him to bed. I know he loves me, and I will cherish that.
