You have been very close the last few days so how is it that I am still surprised when I stumble over the fact that you aren't just around the corner? Your picture has been flashing on my screensaver more than usual...honest...and sometimes I smile and sometimes I choke back tears. I was/am so blessed by your presence and yet I find myself so lost sometimes now....And I honestly don't think I want that to change yet.

Remind Aaron that today was horrifically hard for his family and that he needs to stay as close as he can. His baby brother Jacob was at the wedding I photographed a couple weeks ago. That one was kinda rough for me. Tears during the reception. Just remind him to be close.

And while you are at it don't forget that we still need you close too. Love you kiddo. Miss you so very much.
