Many people have asked if we will be doing anything special to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of Peter's passing this week. To be honest, we really haven't planned anything other than our own personal reflection when the 11th arrives. For Peter's birthday, we celebrated as a family by having his favorite dinner (tacos), played his favorite game (Pokemon Master Trainer) and ate angel food cake for dessert. Tina and I will more than likely take time this weekend to visit the cemetary this weekend, but other than that, we do not think that we will extend our observance of this anniversary to anything more than that. Peter continues to be a part of each day of my life, and reminders of him live all around me in our home, church and neighborhood. The memories bring less and less pain, however, and when I reflect on Peter, I spend more time thanking God that he was a part of my life for as long as he was rather than sinking into sadness. Life is good, and I am grateful for the many blessings I receive every day. I have a beautiful wife, three wonderful children who are still with me in this life, I have a great job, and God is helping us heal every day.
