Time....

It's funny how the time just flies past you.

It has been over 6 weeks now since we lost Adam but it feels like much longer.

The weeks that have past have been difficult but we have tried to continue the only way we know how - positively.

We had a lovely day at Easter Road a couple of weeks ago. We were invited to the game including hopsitality, it was brilliant the boys got a tour of changinf rooms and met the players again. They also got to meet new signing and have their picture taken with him (first fans to get pic done) so they were delighted. It was a brilliant day - Thanks Amanda!!


There have also been another couple of fundraisers, thank you so very much, we are planning to take the boys back to South Africa next year for a little escape. You have all been so supportive, it is really appreciated. Thank you!

Yesterday (23rd) was the 6th Anniversary of my granny dying and as usual I paid a visit to the cemetry with flowers for her, her ashes were scattered over her parents burial plot, so we hae a place to leave floweres for her. I didn't go alone this year though, Spike and the boys came too, we hadn't told the boys til we got there. After delivering my granny her flowers we then had a walk around the Garden of Remembrance. I am ashamed to admit this is the first time I have been here although both my mum (2007) and dad's (2003) ashes were scattered here. It is lovely, very tranquil and peaceful. We have decided to get a memorial plaque made for Adam as the boys seemed a little lost having not having any special place to go. Not sure what we will get yet, maybe a rose bush or a marble planter......will let the boys decide what they want.

Well tomorrow is Christmas Day and I really am dreading it. Not sure what to be thinking......just hoping we can get though it ok for the boys.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for a better 2009!

Take care and see you all next year!

Lynn, Spike and the boys.

we were thinking of you, Spike and the boys on Christmas day.

Words are so inadequate, but our thoughts and hearts were with you all.

Much love
