A year ago

This week marks a year since the Haiti earthquake.  I lost a lot of sleep during that time, thinking about it, and thinking about the families who had someone missing.  It hit closer to home than I would have guessed when Phil's new neighbour was revealed to be one of the victims.

I think about Katie's mom a lot.  Katie was an only child and seemed like a wonderful person.  I'm sure the void she's left is still huge.  I wish her mom strength on what must be a terrible anniversary.

Of course, my words are weak compared to what my husband manages to say.  You can read his thoughts in this Walrus piece called 'Aftershock'.
