Purple Flowers

One of my favorite things about living in the Pacific Northwest is having an actual Spring. You know, where trees turn green again, buds grow on trees, flowers bloom, and the weather gets warmer. Yes, we still have our fair share of rain in the Spring (it is raining as I write this in fact). Spring weather is far from consistent, but we actually can witness the renewal of life around us. Growing up, I was more used to snow, mud, and then summer. We would see the trees turn green, but oftentimes it was closer to summer than in Spring.

This beauty is on the side of our driveway.

Still.
I still think of you every day. I wish you were here to see A and S grow up. I wish you would have had a chance to meet S - you would have loved her. She is full of spunk and personality; she would have made you laugh. A is still smart, funny, and sweet. I still hope that she will remember you, but I know all of her memories will be my memories shared with her. I still need you. I still miss you. I still love you.
There is no end to "still."

Still
