5 years ago...

Today is the 5 year anniversary of my brother, Patrick's, death. It is still surreal. There are still days that I want to pick up the phone and call him to share a funny story. That has been happening a lot lately because Mattie Leigh does so many things like he used to. It still hurts, and grief still sneaks up on me suddenly at times. However, I have joy in knowing that I'll one day see him again.
