If you could change one event that took place in 2014, what would it be?

If you've been following along this year, then you know exactly what kind of year I've had.
There's been some good stuff:
-we moved back to VA
-we joined 2 great homeschooling groups
-we've had lots of fun
There's been a lot of bad stuff, too:
-we moved, AGAIN... the 4th time in just over 1 1/2 years
-we've had some car trouble
-I've had some health issues, including an unexpected surgery
But there's one thing that I wish I could change. Just one. I will take all the bad that I've been through this year and multiply it by 100 if I could change just one thing..... I wish I still had my Dad.
I miss him so much every single day. Most days I can deal and just keep myself very busy but then there are days where I just can't....
I know that it will get easier with time but I wish I didn't have to go through it at all. I wish he was still here.
I've had 2 dreams about him since he passed away in August. The first was just about 2 wks ago. In my dream I was told he was dead but I didn't believe it. The whole time I searched for him all over the place.
In the 2nd, which was just a couple of days ago, I get the call that he died but when I get to TN I find out that it was a mistake. He was at the hospital but OK.

sobs... I am so sorry for your loss. He seemed like a good man and had a heart of gold.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Karen. You are absolutely correct. He was wonderful.
DeleteI wish I had something poetic or beautiful to say to help take away the pain but I don't sweet friend and I am sorry. This makes me wish he was here too. You can feel your love for him in this post. I know you wish he was here still but no need to search like in your dreams because he lives on in your heart. Remember the good times and memories made.
ReplyDeleteLove and peace to you Stacy 💕
Thank you so much, Jenn!!
DeleteYou're right. He will always be in my heart and in my memories.
This post breaks my heart. If I could bring him back for you I would.

DeleteOh, Stacy, this is so hard, and I wish I could do or say anything to make it better… What did your Daddy do or say to you when you were sad? Hug you? Make a joke?
