Today is the Five year Anniversary of the passing of my husband so I wanted to display this also because he was known for his puns. He would have thought that this was a fun sentiment. Both of my kids called me this weekend and were thinking of him and his last hours with us. He was such a geek so he would have had my Internet taking care of quickly and not over 3 days so it was a terrible reminder of how much I miss him. That's why it is important to appreciate the people who are in our lives, because life is all too short.
