almost 2 years.....
The other day I went to the department store, almost for the first time in 2 years. I was wearing some of the well chosen clothes that only you, Karen, would have the good taste to find. I have been wearing them becasue they make me feel close to you-closer than we were in this life. As I was standing in line, I started to cry and I could not stop. The cashier asked me what was wrong, and I told her about you. I showed her the boots I was wearing that you so carefully picked out. I showed her a picture of you and she thought we were twins (just you were taller of course). I don't know why it hit me that way in the store, I guess because the clothes I was able to fit into are starting to tear, and wear, and it makes your passing more real than it was before. I wish we would have had more time to really know each other. I wish we would have been closer. I wish that I had one more chance to talk to you. I just wanted to tell you today that I love you. I know that you are looking down on us, in no pain, and I know that we will talk again. I am so thankful we had that last night together, I think about it all the time, and I thank God for the hours He gave us to be together, just you and me. You know what I am trying to say. Thanks for letting me be with you that night..... Miss you Karen............
