1:05 a.m.

The house is silent.    I just watched a movie that I know Cory would appreciate, but will never see.  I can't talk about it with her, get her opinion, compare favorite characters, and favorite scenes.  After I turned off the tv, I laid my head on the pillow, and tried to drift.  All I could see was her face.  When you think you have no tears left to cry, there are always more. 


Every day there is something I want to tell her, to teach her, to share.


Jake drew a picture of his family last night in a long staggering line of sad, solemn faces, but for the animals. Then he drew a picture of Cory inside his heart with a slash acoss it.  "That's because my heart is broken."


Mine too, buddy.
