2 Years

If I had things my way, he would still be here. I would roll my eyes at the conversations he and my husband would have. I would make fun of their traditional "goodbye" saying when they got off the phone. I would see him at least once a month for UFC fight nights.

I would still be thanking him for introducing me to his best friend, my husband. He would be praying for us as we go through infertility.

He would be raising his kids and watching them grow and he would be so proud of the people they are becoming. He would continue to love his beautiful wife.

But God had other plans for J.B. on January 3, 2010. He whisked him off to heaven and from there, he looks after us. I can still feel his presence in our lives. But it isn't the same and it wasn't what was in my plans but I guess, our plans aren't what come first.
