I have a love/hate relationship with this time of year, especially this year. This year has been something else. The isolation of 2020 can get to the best of us. Usually I surround myself with family and friends this time of year and it helps me get through those dark nights where all I do is sit and think about going through another Christmas without Asher. I still miss him so much and I’m sure that will never change. I should be out buying him Christmas gifts but not once have I had to and I hate that so much. What would you be into? I should know what 8 year old boys are into, is it cars, Star Wars, Minecraft? This time of year I always find myself going through the “boy” aisles at the store to see all the toys that would be perfect for boys. Chris does the same thing and it is hard to watch him because I know he would really love to be buying a gift for his son. Each year as a tradition we do buy Asher a car to put on his grave. We all sign it and then on Christmas we all go out to wish him a Merry Christmas and give him his car. Here is this years car.
I love hearing my girls chat about Asher, Olivia makes sure that Saige and Izzy know all about him. I know that as a family we will always make sure Asher is apart of Christmas Day and everyday.
