Errands for Ethan

I used to put a lot of effort into blogging.  Now, I just try to keep up with it.  I love having the record to go back and read.  I also love seeing how far I have come in handling my grief of the last two years.  Yes, it will be two years next month.  I cannot believe it has been that long.  Some days it feels like Ethan was with us yesterday.  It's so strange to try and explain what it's like to  have a child with you one moment and gone the next.  So strange.  I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Last year, my friend came up with the idea for the anniversary day of Ethan's death.  Ethan died on March 26.  We asked people last year to do a random act of kindness on that day in his memory and call it Errands for Ethan.  On the day he became an angel we ask that others do an "angel errand."  This year we are asking people to do the same.  On March 26, do a random act of kindness in Ethan's memory or the memory of an angel in your life.  We hope to see the kindness spread this year even further than last. Planning the day gives me something to focus on, but also brings a lot of emotion.  I hate that I don't get to see Ethan.  But reading all the acts of kindness that went on last year, helped the day be easy.  I look forward to that again.  We, as a family, are planning what we can do.  We invite all of you to join us in about 6 weeks.  Plan your errand :)
