You brought me to kindy.
Every working day.
Back then... buckle up? I lost a (baby-) tooth when you had to brake with the red BMW (back then a good car).
These days, as a Brunswick-person I walk these few steps.
Your future.... my future BIL was next door in kindy, he was a hedgerow, who grew bit by bit, and practised at home, as hubby told me. It was a big play.
Only once (I think) you forgot me, and I had to "sleep" in kindy.
Who sleeps at daytime???
With 15+ kids on matresses, too???
You never let it happen again (I do not know the real reason (fit on my side?)).
Ewww... kid´s toilets at kindy > no privacy, and yes! I DO know I have to be thankful for all of this!
But when you have... you also see the down-side.
Too many kids, always.
LOUD.
Hectical.
But that was us.
Kindergarten...
Our family.
And I miss you, Mum.
You´re gone ... 7 years today.
At 01:00 pm Bro called me back then.
Why does it still hurt so much?
MIL took over.
The day we ... you know... she said I have no Mum no more, so she will be there.
We had a rough start, but turned out... she is there (if online, as in Spain now).
Pics... a kindy trying to get customers(?)
Don´t we all have a big bag to carry somehow.
Also. I had to inform Uncle P, your youngest Brother. I didn´t know it was his birthday.

Oh Iris, I'm so sorry. I know -- it hurts as much years, decades later. We get on with it, we soldier on, but we don't forget and on certain days it hits us like a sledgehammer. Be gentle with yourself in these days. Grief is powerful but it is built from love and that is and will always be a great gift.
Thank you Jeanie. All those words are true and help. A sledgehammer, oh, yes. Love, yes. Thank you.
I still can´t believe "we" fly to Mars but cancer is still leathal.
I’m so sorry, Iris. Lots of love to you. Xxx
Thank you, Sarah. Xxx
I'm sorry.
My mother's been gone since 2013. And one of the reasons Christmas is so painful for me now is that it was a favourite holiday for her. No matter how long they're gone, if we had a good relationship with them, we never stop missing our mothers.
Yes, I think you are right, and I am sorry, too.
One moves on only superficially but the emotional baggage is carried always to be dipped into.
Yes, I think always is the right word...
