I was right back there, I recalled that year vividly when I read my own comments on the post and it was ... bittersweet. Both for the loss of Lex and the fact that Christmas just isn't the same now that my girls are older. Fleeting moments, indeed. One last thought - even though we have the Neptunus Lex Super Secret FB page (and I am eternally grateful that we do), reading back through the comments on Lex's post makes me miss, not *just* Lex, but the community we had there. Maybe it's because I still haven't figured out who some of the people are (old call signs to current names) or maybe because some are missing but ... it just ain't the same.<br /><br />Ah, well, I haven't read the post at the Lexicans yet that inspired this. Off there now.Michelle Morgan-Coolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03671529553739362752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-28171730171252299182013-12-15T16:25:34.983-08:002013-12-15T16:25:34.983-08:00I remember it all too well.

That has somewhat dampened the mood 'round these parts, with my wife having trouble getting into the spirit of the season with him being gone. Their family has some wonderful memories of him during Christmas (falling off the roof in a Santa Suit, shooting down their Christmas Tree, et al.), and knowing there won't be any new ones it hitting her hard. It will be a season or two until she can see those memories as a light, vice ones that remind her that he's gone, but it will happen.Tunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930237104692982421noreply@blogger.com
