Originally written as a facebook note 12/17/10 - I am extra weepy today. I know it's a combination of things - I don't feel well, Christmas is getting closer, I wrote the donor letter last night, and Todd went out to the funeral home today and signed the Rose Bowl parade card and received Max's rose.
I wrapped a few presents today. I thought the hard part would be not having any under the tree for Max. In reality, the hardest part today was gifts I wrapped for other people. The gift tag always read from "Todd, Pam, Max, & Wesley". Not this year. So each time I wrote a tag without Max's name on it, I cried.
I recycle cards and bows each year, and found a few tags I had saved with "To Max" on them.
Todd & I are going to watch movies tonight and try to escape reality for awhile. I will be SO GLAD when the holidays are over and this constant reminder that Max isn't here for Christmas this year.
