Jane, what a beautiful heartfelt post my friend... Full of such love and gratitude, I am a huge believer Jane in that what we give out to others we shall receive back ten fold...

By reading your post, I see that the kindness and compassion you bring to those in grief at their time of need, is fully appreciated...

And I can resonate with those 'Trunks' which we have to overcome my friend, and I too am so grateful like you are with Tim, to have a wonderful other half, whose shoulder is broad to lean upon...

Wonderful news too about a new soul to be born.... I know your knitting pattern will be gorgeous..

Sending love and well wishes to you both xx <3 xx πŸ™πŸ’•πŸ’–

Being a good listener and cool under pressure are underappreciated skills. Sometimes we're so emotionally wrapped up that we need our partners' advice. I reflect on the rare occasion when I had a bad day at school. Sometimes I felt like talking about it, and other times I didn't, but Debbie was always a good listener. We'd often end up in stitches, laughing about the ridiculousness of a parent's or administrator's actions.
