So well said, Amy, on all fronts. Missing and wishing is a routine part of the day. So is the tactile act of baking which fills the empty house with familiarity.

Dear Amy, I enjoyed your writing this morning. I'm a little further along in years than you. I now have grandchildren and yesterday we gained a new granddog. Some people in my life are growing and others are dying. I'm now facing my morality. I do find comfort in my mornng coffee, texts from my grandchildren, Fritz by my side , friends and my garden. I never really thought about places that bring me comfort but I also have them. A reastaurant in Kent where the owner welcomes you and takes the time to know you. I guess it's a two way street. We have also taken the time to know him.

I want to thank you for sharing your life and loves with your community. I'm looking forward to your next letters.
