To see Maddy sitting alone in the very chair that Liz sat in a year ago is just so fucking sad. You really are an amazing dad. 2 coincidences...we actually have that same chair and my twins have the same santa suit. Oh, man.

She's going to look back and this and be glad that her dad dressed her so cute and took so many adorable pictures! Maddy is going to be a knock out when she gets older because she has such good-looking parents! It's great that you're holding Liz's memory in your heart and sharing it with the rest of the world! It's really brave of you! Rock on Matt- Hang in there! You can do this! You're an AWESOME Dad!

Your a complete stranger and *I* spent Christmas thinking about your family. I cherish every moment so much more now because of this blog. Thank you for sharing something so ... shitty.

I am drawn to your story due to the loss of my young, beautiful sister, mother of 3 young girls, with a husband that is doing as you. Going on for those precious girls, your use of "colorful language" sounds like him to. Like he says as we too are getting through our first Christmas without Lu. There isn't a damn thing we can do about it. He did an amazing job giving his girls a wonderful holiday. Luann Ashpole, my sis, suffered a brain aneurysm Dec. 22 as she was getting the xmas presents ready to go to Grandmas. She spent the next 12 days at St. Joe's in St. Paul and we never thought she wouldn't be coming home to us. Why such terrible things happen to such good people I will never know. I just had to say hello, your words remind me so much of her husband Steve. We are so lucky to have him as your family is to have you. You can tell your relationships with your spouses were what we all dream to have! Take Care My oh My, I have just found your site through Lemmondrops, another sad, sad story.

Wish I could say something other than every "fuck" you uttered was merited and more. I am so sorry. Wishing you an '09 that balances the ache. Of course it doesn’t.

I was thinking of you during the holidays. It does suck that you have been dealt this hand. I hope that 2009 is a better year. Take care of yourself and enjoy this frozen land that is Minnesota. I am glad that you can be there with family. Madeline looks beautiful. I was thinking of you during the holidays. It does suck that you have been dealt this hand. I hope that 2009 is a better year.
