I've been lighting a candle to Robin in the evenings the last week or so - and will continue to do so. The flickering light is comforting as I reflect on our many happy years together, trips made, places visited, the people we have shared our social lives with. So many happy memories. And I must admit I do worry how I will cope in the lonely weeks, months, years, that lay ahead.
Candle glow in the evenings
Poor little Gemma is still rather unsettled and her behaviour is different now. I'm sure she knows Robin is no longer here, and can perhaps pick up on the changes in the household, and my emotions as well. She was hiding away from the world in the box on her climbing tower. I understand Gemma, wish I could hide away from the world too. I never knew missing him would hurt so much.
You can't see me, I'm hiding
