June is a hard month for me. My mom died on the 16, my sister on the 28th, my uncle on the 30th.

Now I have two aunts on the 18th which happens to be my mother’s birthday.I’ve honestly just coasted through the month.

I had a good day for my mother’s birthday because I was in a virtual conference for the weekend. I also spent time with my sister so I was ok.

I was focusing so hard on not being sad the 16th, 28th and the 30th snuck up on me.

Missing your love ones is hard. I cope by thinking about happy moments with them.

I had a baby shower for my daughter last weekend and wished they were there to help celebrate. I shed a few tears and hoped they could see this fun day.

I survived another anniversary month. I’m stronger and wiser for it.

Sending virtual hugs to you if you are about to start your anniversary month in July.

Do you do anything for the anniversary day/month?
