[QUOTE="myfirstandlast, post: 112931, member: 3420"] Just wanted to update this thread too. We have continued with grief counseling. It has gone better than expected, especially with my son, who HATES counseling. Both kids enjoy going. They've been warning me in my group that the first major holidays without their dad are going to be the worst. I easily spent four times what I should have or ever have on presents because I wanted more than anything for them to just have a day where his absence was not deeply and painfully missed. I know I can't buy happiness, but there was plenty of joy and surprise. The kids spent their own money to buy each other gifts, and made really nice unselfish choices. I'm very proud of them.
