Wedding Anniversary

Today is my wedding anniversary, the second year without Paul. 
No-one has commented on it. But then I shouldn't expect them to; I'm no longer married, just a widow.
People forget so quickly.

I've just come back from a family holiday in Cornwall. 
Paul and I had our honeymoon there; in fact it was there he asked me to marry him when we had a weekend break in St.Ives.  I have so many memories.  I didn't cry in front of the children, but it hurt.  It still hurts now.

On our first day my 8 yr old (who was very tired after an early start) cried alot missing Daddy.

I saw Paul before our drive down: he was wearing his cut down jeans and his white shirt (his holiday clothes)  it was just a flash but so real, I thought he was with me for that moment.  I couldn't breathe with the pain of missing him.

I'm sure he was there for a reason.  He knew how hard the holiday was going to be for me, both physically and mentally.  He always loved holidays; he was just like a little boy, so excited he didn't know what to do.  And I miss that, I miss him.

Happy Anniversary my darling.
