Going to the site

Hello. It's always so hard for me to come to the blog. Every time I do, I just cry, I can't seem to help it. I wish I can just be happy, but it only hurts. I miss my sweet Tim and every time i see our picture, I just weep. I miss his hugs, cuddles, kisses, his warmth next to me as we sit together. I miss everything! I feel like a fish out of water. Who am I? I look at the kids and I hurt! When will it end?Will the tears ever stop?

Someone played me this song. It was so much like me. I didn't want to miss a moment with Tim when he was sick, i only slept about 3 hrs. a night. Sometime I would just watch his sweet face and watch him breathe. I just wanted to hear him and be next to him, I didn't want to miss a thing!

I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing (Aero Smith)

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
watch you smile while you are sleeping
while you're far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

( chorus)
Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
cause even when I dream of you
the sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating(I love to hear his heart and feel his warmth)
and I'm wondering what you're dreaming
wondering if it's me you're seeing
then I kiss your eyes ( and his lips and face)
and thank God were together (I always did)
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
forever and ever ( but life doesn't work that way & I miss my Tim)

(chorus)

I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close (I was holding him close when he died, right there in my arms)
feel your heart so close to mine
and just stay here in this moment
for all the rest of time (I only wish that I could, I thought that I was going to grow old with Tim)

(chorus)

The last month before he died, I was by his side. I didn't want to miss a moment. I'm glad I was able to be there every moment. Now I am missing those moments. All the love and cuddles. His laugh, his humor, his gentle ways, his craziy ways, his thoughtfulness and his sweetness. I miss looking into his blue eyes and seeing the love that he had for me and the forgiveness there when I messed up, I did it so often, but there was always forgiveness!

Some evenings and nights are so hard! The other night I couldn't sleep, so I got my ipod and starting listening to music. I forgot that my friend had down loaded some other songs for me. The second song said "I don't want to lose you....." I reached over to him, the empty cold spot of my bed and wept and wept!!

Sat. morning first thought, "if Tim were here he would be coming to kiss me to tell me that he was going to yard sales." He loved his yard sales!! And he loved me and he always made sure I had kisses before he left to go anywhere! It's hard to get out of bed sometimes, just knowing he won't be there.

I know that what I am going thru is normal grieving. I know that I will heal. I know that I will get through it. I know that you care. Could you just send me a note in the comments cause right now I just need to know that people care.

Easter was nice. Another first. It was hard but so nice to have the boys home. I miss them too!
Rae's wedding is in 4wks. and 4 days. We're having a shower for her on Apr. 19th. 2pm. at Cariboo Bethel.

Thanks for your prayers and encouragement. Whew!! I've been crying so much now I am all worn out!

I finally went to the grave site. I went yesterday and I fell apart, seeing his name,"Tim Wade," seemed so unreal and yet so final. I wept and stayed a long time. The sun came out and warmed me and I had a good talk with God and felt better. It seeems though that I can't seem to stop the tears!!

I will press on! Blessings to you all!
Esther

Esther, ...thanks for sharing your heart with us...God sees your tears and feels the emptiness and pain you feel. Tears are God's gift to relieve the pain caused by grief...it's ok to cry for as long as you need to. One day your tears will be tears of joy. The pain will lessen with time. "Time" is different for everyone. Did you know that He holds your tears in a bottle?....Ps.56:8 kjv...I wonder what He does with them?...I'm thinkin' God waters His Garden with them...that's why His Roses are sooooo beautiful!!!!
...Every Sat. I go garaging and I think of Tim. We always would meet up at some point and quickly compare which ones were "the best"...or maybe race to the next one to see who beat who...weird eh?...He was very good at bartering, always bringing a smile to my face!
esther don't worry about your tears; just let them fall...God is there with his cupped hands lifting them up to Heaven, to be used to "heal" and bring "life" for you!!!

Keep your face to the "Son"
Sheila

Esther, I miss you so much
I know I'm not very good at keeping in touch, but I still read the blog whenever I get a free moment.
I'm so encouraged by your words and the stuff that you share that you're going through, I wish I was there right now for hugs. I miss being with you guys as part of your fam. I'm so grateful for everything you did for me to make me feel included. I hope to see you sometime soon, and am sending prayers your way. Love to hear from you, Sarah

I met Tim through Katimavik, and I find myself checking in on you every once in a while. I'm sorry you are still feeling so much pain. I am also amazed at the depth of love you must have shared- it sounds better than movie love. It seems bigger than life or death, when I read your words I am certain Tim is watching over you and your kids and pouring out all the love he has.
I wish you peace.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Tim was a great guy in every way and I know that he is missed more than words could ever express. Our hope is that you and your family will continue to pull together as you go through this loss together.
Tim is with Jesus and you will see him again..but the wait is long and hard at times
God Bless you and give you His joy
