The special people in my life.

Hi Mom,

It has been a while since I have written to you. So many things have changed. I have been quite busy with life. I was not sure if I was going to continue my letters to you do to some negative feedback that I received but a good friend who is a huge inspiration to me, expressed why I should. I really appreciated her views and she made me realize that these letters are important and are special. Those who don't feel that they may chose not to read them. Thank you JP, I love u and thank you for getting me back on track.

As you know, Kirk passed away in September. I hope he knows that I know that he was getting is stuff together. I am sad that Kennedy lost her only uncle. It is so hard to believe that that I have lost my mother and brother with in three years. It is crazy. So many days, I pick up the phone to share something with you and then it hits me and I am broken again. Kennedy and Steve keep me strong. It saddens me that Kennedy is losing members of her family even before she is old enough to remember them. How will explain it all to her in ten years? How did you do it? This is just one of the many questions I want so much to ask you. I do have wonderful people who have been there for me since you passed. I want to tell you about them.

Josee, well of course you know Jo, always been a rock for me since we were kids. She is so busy but never too busy for me and my family. She is super happy with her life. She is working and has a man who is perfect for her.

Sara, Sara is still beautiful as ever. Sara has always been that friend that you can call after a period of time and things are the same. She is presently living in Thailand with her Fiance Alex. They are happy. I hope to make a trip to see her there.

Jennifer, Jennifer is the friend that I met so many years ago in Osgoode. We have always been close in our hearts. Jen, actually had a hand in me meeting Steve. Her and I don't see each other often or speak often but I hope that she knows that she is a very special person to me for many reasons. Jennifer, has always been there for me even when her life is crazy she can press pause and support me.

Josee, Josee and I became friend after her son started coming to Blanche Neige Daycare. We started chatting and before long we became good friends. Josee was a big support during my pregnancy as she knew how much I missed you. I value our friendship as she has shared some special moments with me. I hope she knows how much.

Kyla, Kyla is Dan's wife. They started dating just before you passed. She has become one of my bestfriends. We talk almost daily. She was right beside me through my challenges with Kennedy and now she has her own little guy. I am sorry that life has kept me from being as good to her as she was to me. I hope she knows that I am trying to change that to make more time for her and my man Oliver.

Rachel, Rachel came back into my life right after you passed away.  We actually are as close as ever do to the fact we each were pregnant together and hopefully our beautiful children will grow up as friends like us.

Debbie and Donna, Debbie and Donna have been a huge support for me through everything. They have kept my family part of the family which is something that is very important to me as I feel that I am losing everyone. They are the big sisters I never had and I love them dearly.


After losing Kirk so suddenly, I was reminded yet again that life is short and to cherish them important, everyday and to lose those who are not worth it.

Mom, I hope you are looking down on me and are proud of what I have accomplished and what kind of a mother I am being to Jacqueline Kennedy. She will know who her guardien angel is when she is older.
