I love this! The picture and what you said! Perfect!
You both are incredibly charming in this photo…
Poignant words, Matt. Sincere best wishes for your new journey abroad.
Oh, Matt,,,,,,,,,,,,,,what a statement! Your writing just gets straight to a person’s heart, and I think that’s why we all love it so much.
Such a sweet photo and the words took my breath away.
Is she throwing a shoe????
Love this picture of you two. Touching and sweet post.
Sue said it best … and Nicole says you’re charming in the photo, but really, you’re both just charming. Period.
Luv the shoe tossing! Maybe she can bring a new sport to India. lol So happy for you guys even if the journeys been extremely bittersweet. Can’t wait for the India Adventures of Maddy. Liz is with you every single step Matt. Just look at Maddy, she’s right there in her. It’s fucking (lol) great what you’ve done and continue to do!
Matt,
The missing part of your us would be SO, SO proud of your us.
You both are amazing.
Thinking of you and Maddy, as always, and wishing you wonderful travels,

Bye Matt and Maddy – have a wonderful, safe journey to (and while in) India. Learn, grow, laugh, throw, write, write, write and come home happy and well. I’ll follow your blog and thank you for being so real, so gentle, so strong. Take care.
Good luck to both of you and safe travels on your new journey in life.
Yes… Mamma is smiling down on you two!!! Move forward, write your book, help others in need, you go! The dynamic duo of the next generation!
I just read an article about Maddie and feel the need to visit your website. I am so impressed with your strength. Also taking a journey to India.
I went on a two week journey to India, kerla in 2005. What a life changing event and experience.
I am excited to hear of your adventure and watch both you and Maddie grow.
I know it is most difficult to go alone without a partner. I raised my two children alone also.
You will become a stronger person. I will pray for the right women to come into your life.
God Speed,
Denise
