Just wanted to post this, as tonight, I have lit a candle for my Mum and Dad. Remembering Christmas as a child with them, happy memories, and now those as an adult, without them. I miss them lots, and I wish C had grown up with the memories I had.

So, for all our loved ones I would like us to take some time and remember them.

I think about my dad everyday and miss being able to call him on the phone and ask him about stuff. When ever I read some sort of scientific news about the universe or the world or nature I have an instant sensation in the back of my head to call him and tell him and then I remember he's not here any more.

Moments like that make me go up to my kids rooms or where ever they are in the house and squash them and tell them I love them and then I think they will never understand until they have kids of their own and I am gone.

I think you're right Bubblegum, in that our kids won't understand until we're gone. I find it extremely difficult to imagine me not being there for C, and I'm sure we're all the same on that one. You take care, and have a wonderful Christmas with your two gorgeous children.
