They say it gets better....and they are right! Really, I think the hardest day I had was the day Garrett left and the Sunday following the day he left. Both were really hard days. Don't get me wrong, I still miss him, but I think it is just that you learn to deal with the reality and learn to adjust to the new lifestyle/life change.
I look forward to every Monday that I get a letter from him...Monday's have become my new favorite day! I love the days that we are able to catch him on the computer and have a brief conversation with him. Granted, it is not the same as talking to him in person, but any little bit of time that I can "chat" with him will do....and it helps make the day that much better.
But really, things are much better. It is amazing how the Lord helps to ease the pain. It is amazing how there are times I am thinking something and then somehow, Garrett seems to answer my thought in his letter or email.
But it really does get better. Honestly. Now two years just needs to fly by.....really 23 months now!
