Now what

There are many moments when my heart feels heavy and my thoughts just circle around the words "now what?"  Now what am I suppose to do, to say, to wear, to act, to cook...now what?  I have no clue but every morning I try to fill the "now what" with life and smiles because I know that's what I have to do and it's what she would have done.

Here are some of our "now what" moments of the past month... 

Trying to master the "mickey mouse" pancake

8 years ago Mother's day was on Sunday-May 11, 2003...it was a beautiful day, it was our wedding day and it was perfect.  Every anniversary Adele would bring over flowers along with a thoughtful card.  She was the only women in my life who knew what it was like being married to a Burdick...it was our own exclusive club ;)

"The rolling stream of life rolls on.
But still the vacant chair
Recalls the love, the voice, the smile
Of the one who once sat there".
