Well, we've recovered from Patrick's death. However, whenever I pass by his apartment complex, I get a sudden urge to cry as I miss him so much. Chris loved the dog tag I got him for Christmas with Patrick's picture engraved on it. It's awesome. The Eminem song I'm listening to, When I'm Gone" was playing when I picked up Chris from school the day we learned of Patrick's death. Although it doesn't pertain to "trick" or his life, it holds special meaning to us. Mainly the part where he says:
"When I'm gone just carry on
don't mourn, rejoice everytime you hear the sound of my voice.
Know that I"m lookin' down on ya smilin' and I didn't feel a thing so baby don't feel no pain just smile back." It is still strange to not have him come knocking on our door looking for Christopher or the girls. I hope his parents and siblings find peace soon.
We had a great holiday. Friday night the kids all went to their dad's houses and opened presents. Saturday we opened ours here and Sunday we drove to West Palm Beach to Dan's brother's house. Nice time there too.
