I've lost 2 siblings and although they weren't as young as your brother they were young in their lives. My sister was 47 and my brother was 52. Every year, while not as painful as the first, still makes me sad and thoughtful. I wish you peace during this anniversary.<br /><br />Maureen<br />moheron@msn.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-411939643357638479.post-2949574125078303272010-02-09T16:04:17.148-06:002010-02-09T16:04:17.148-06:00OMG . . . totally LOL right now . . . when i reach...OMG . . . totally LOL right now . . . when i reached my forties is the same time i started forgetting how old i am. i continually have to do the math otherwise i make myself older!!!

It's been a year since I lost one of my sisters to cancer and in my heart, I know she'd be giving the same encouragement you gave in your note. Thank you for sharing your life with us, and for reminding us to remember the good times, and live new ones each day.Casmileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04826559372999850997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-411939643357638479.post-90898355306171658802010-02-06T11:50:36.403-06:002010-02-06T11:50:36.403-06:00Wow Mish!

Thank you for writing it! You are so right, we all get drawn in to the everyday hustles and bustles of life and sometimes forget the most important things in life! Just to stop and enjoy, laugh, love, smell and just have fun living! My Dad passed away 4 years ago on the 5th of Feb. I miss him dearly. I will keep your words close to my heart as they are soooo true! Sending prayers your way!

I wish we had the courage and fortitude that you and your family had/have. This was 40+ years ago.. and my siblings still are healing to this day. We didn't have the support systems available now. My prayers and very special thoughts are with you.. sweet little chicklet!! I love every little creative thing you do.
