In just 27 days it will be two years since we lost our Christopher. It's hard to believe that this much time has passed and that I'm still breathing. That I've experienced two years of life without an entire piece of me. I'm sad today. I found an old prescription bottle for 2003 in Christopher's name in the cabinet yesterday and it was enough to send me on my way to a bad night, but I woke with the sun once again and am still trying my best to find the positive. Kids don't understand how much their parents love them. They don't love us like we love them. They do when they are very little, but they lose that as they grow, which is the order or nature. We don't lose that. They continue to love us, yes...but it's different. I miss my son today. I miss him everyday. Sometimes I'm overwhelmed by the fact that I have to do this for the rest of my life.

This clip runs for 9 minutes and I am asking all of my friends to PLEASE watch it. It is about Afghanistan and is very informative. It raises two points I feel are important. The first is how the American public is simply not engaged in the toll the war is taking and the second is how when this turned from a war on terror to a rebuilding effort, it became a losing battle. For those not aware, Joe Scarborough is a republican who is against the war and does not like Romney. I wish he would run for President. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036789/#47141343
