Today is the day that we mark Sam’s passing..\ufffc it’s a strange day because I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel. I know today I felt pretty good. We spent a lot of time talking about and thinking about Sam. It’s important to actually bring him into mind\ufffc At all the stages we knew\ufffc Him\u2026 The beautiful baby, the sparkling toddler, the mischievous middle Schooler\u2026 And the beautiful young man\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I told lots of stories today\u2026 I just got through telling our housemate Kyle about both of Sam’s broken elbows\u2026 Both funny little painful stories.\ufffc<\/p>\n

We took our annual hike at Bolton. It was a weekday and we’ve decided to shift the potluck until tomorrow Friday\u2026 So it was a small crowd. There were five of us hiking up in the beautiful snow. It was a wonderful hike\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I climbed up the fire tower on my own. I always pour a drink out for Sam up there and set off fireworks<\/p>\n

Our friend Karen and Iain were there\u2026 They came up one at a time to check it out. It was a place Sam loved\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We got home and I was so exhausted (I hadn’t slept much the night before)\u2026 But I fell asleep for a few hours. I woke up and it was dark and I was confused about what day it was. Luckily my friend Tim came by and made me a martini\u2026 That cleared things up immediately :-)\ufffc<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Afterwords Diane and I took Kyle out for sushi which was really nice.<\/p>\n

It was a good day. I feel like I spent a good part of it with Sam<\/p>\n

What a great kid<\/p>\n

I love you my son<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n
