This week of Spring Break has been both wonderful and terrible.  From Saturday to Wednesday, I went snow skiing and had a wonderful time.  The snow was good, the weather cooperated, the company was fun.  I couldn't have asked for a better trip.  
Then I got home and had to deal with the emotions of Jason's first birthday in heaven.  I asked his friends via Facebook to send me some good memories of him, and I have received messages from all over.  That has helped; I like knowing that his friends are remembering fun times.  Friday was the six month anniversary of his death, so Tony and I went to Stillwater and had lunch with Allison and Carson.  We watched the Cowboys win and enjoyed a good lunch.  
The only thing left is seeing his headstone.  There's something about seeing his name carved in stone that frightens me.  I'm not sure how I will react.  It should be up soon because last week they started preparing for it by pouring a slab.  That usually is a sign that the stone is almost ready.  
Once again I will have to put on my "big girl panties" and so out there to see it.  We tried to choose a stone that was different, personal, and fitting for Jason.  I hope it looks like I have pictured it.

Deb, thanks for continuing to be vulnerable. I had the best time ever skiing!! You have been in my thoughts and prayers constantly and will continue to be. I hope that the stone is as you have pictured as well.
