November AJ Challenge Week 4 {GRATITUDE}

The November Week 4 Challenge has been posted. Our Word Prompt for November is GRATITUDE. I'm grateful (among a lot of other things) for the love and support I've gotten from my family during these past difficult months. I know that Chuck is looking down on us.

I used Haven by Lynn Grieveson, Big Moments Wings by mixed media by Erin and Lifeline Grief by Lynne Anzelc.

Oh Cheryl! I love this layout. The flaming wings. :heartpumppink: Time is marching on and I love that you have such wonderful support. I love Chuck in the center of this layout. He's still the center of so much and included in all the events that are happening.The sad, forlorn girl in the upper left, she feels heartbroken yet embracing the pain. There is so many emotions in this layout. I haven't read the comments yet (that's next) as I didn't want to skew my thoughts. But Wow my sweet friend, this is a meaningful layout. Moving forward with Chuck always in the center.

Oh my goodness, Tracy - did you crawl inside my mind? You ALWAYS get my pages and my thoughts - as I create my pages. Yes, time is marching on - I'm going on 10 months without Chuck. Sometimes it seems like yesterday and other times it seems like it has been longer. I have the most loving and supportive family (IRL and here at The O) and I'll be forever grateful for both. We never forget Chuck and we never will. Every event that we have together (and there are lots of them) his name comes up and we laugh about some of the things he used to say. A lot of times it's "Here's to Chuck and his stories". He had so many of them and the older the gks get, the more they appreciated him. I love that we never forget or leave him out. As always, your comments cut right to my heart. :heartpumpred::heartpumpred::heartpumpred:

It dawned on me last night, I think I get this, and my dads passing being so emotional this year because in January I love my FIL who was a wonderful man. So its all fresh again. MIL and FIL were SO private I dont share about him here. I love that all your events include Chuck and stories. He will always be with you all as you keep talking about him and remembering. Some days that will hurt, (feel raw) but its wonderful you talk about him. My immediate family does that too, we always talk about my dad and now my FIL and the funny things they did/said or how much they would have enjoyed an event. My FIL would have laughed his head off at my attempt to filet fish this summer. :heartpumppink:

Some people are just so private - and that's okay. My family just "lets it all hang out". We went to a birthday party last night for a friend and Roger (my SIL) said something about Chuck - Adrienne and I wanted to "sneak out" and Roger said, "Chuck would NEVER do that - he had too much class. He said he thinks of Chuck every day and asks himself "what would Chuck do/say about whatever?" He said he thinks about Chuck every day. Chuck left such a wonderful legacy. :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred:
