Sunday

deep breaths

April 3, 2011

As tomorrow’s last first – April 4th approaches for us, we are amazed how fast it has gone and breathing a sigh of relief that we made it through.  Lots of people have been asking me what we plan to do and nothing felt right.  When I asked Talyn what he thought, he was clear. 

Let’s have a party mommy!  We can put out all of daddy’s things and make a sign and people can come and remember daddy with us.  My heart actually broke when he said that he is worried people have forgotten about his daddy and this will help them remember.  His original idea also included inviting anyone who saw our sign, but that’s where we started negotiating.   So we will have a few people over and show Talyn that none of us will ever forget his daddy.

We will also be heading to Rosedale Hospice with flowers to brighten their day, thank them all for their wonderful support last year and be in the place where Ryan last was. 

If you knew Ryan at all or even heard something about him, take a minute tomorrow to remember the lessons he hoped to share.  Smile more, laugh often, and really live.  That is the message he hoped we would all learn from him.  

Much love to you all and eternal thanks for all of your support that has helped us get through the last year.

Tasha & Talyn
