| The Song Remembers When - Trisha Yearwood G'evening sweet friends, Forgive me a few visual indulgences ... Having unexpectedly lost a dear friend the other evening, this week's been difficult. Sometimes I think December's the hardest month. I'm not saying that to court sympathy ... in the words of her great granddaughter, "Although we love Mimi so much, we are happy to know she is exactly where she wants to be, in the arms of the Lord." May we all be so blessed! |
That little chair behind me?
It still sits beside my bed to hold a cell phone and water bottle.

ReplyDeleteI wish I could give you a big hug and comfort you at your time of loss. Even when we know they are in the best place they could be, in heaven, we still miss them and grieve. We want to be happy at Christmas, not sad. But more than one of us has an empty chair at the table during the holidays.
ReplyDeleteYou are blessed to have some good memories, hold on to them and they'll get you through this tough time! Love, ma
It's always hard to lose a friend, but the holiday season does seem to make i worse. However, as Christians we take joy in the fact that the person is where they were meant to be.

Merry Christmas. 🎄
The loss of a friend is a hard on us but as her great granddaughter, said, “ Although we love Mimi so much, we are happy to know she is exactly where she wants to be, in the arms of the Lord."
ReplyDeleteWhile you will miss her earthly presence, knowing you will see her again is very comforting.
