I'm so sorry for your loss but I believe he's watching over you and all your children and sees his first child and is brimming with pride.
May G_D bless you and yours

God Bless You.
I lost my husband too. He was my everything because I had no family. My famliy were abusive nut cases. My husband was murdered over 10 yrs ago and I still miss him. I never got to say good bye and sometimes I still ask God.....................WHY??? He was a wonderful person who never hurt anyone in his life.

Things get better with time, but you NEVER forget, nor should you.

Hugs..........................JOYCE

I have never been a widow, and five years as an isolated single parent only gives me a little understanding. I hope you heal healthy, so that eventually you will live a satisfying and enjoyable life.

That is so sad. I'm really sorry for your loss. But he does live on in his child, sort of. I know nothing can make up for your loss but perhaps thinking of this will help a little. I hope you will feel better eventually.
