Dad and Ron will probably go to the cemetery for the first time tomorrow. It's fitting since it will be 100 days since Mom passed away. How will I endure the 100's of days I have left without her.
When the girls were in elementary school, they celebrated the 100th day of school by bringing in 100 of something they could count, like pennies or Cheerio's or marshmallows. I've already counted over 100 tears and 100 prayers for healing and strength. I replay her voice in my head 100 times so I won't forget the sound of her voice. And after the 100th day tomorrow, it will be 101 then 102 and on and on. What are we counting on or counting toward? Landmark events to help us measure time.....birth, baptism, confirmation, graduation, marriage, family, death.
