Today would have been my best friend Jenn’s 31st birthday so just want to take a little time to remember her and the silly, smart, and lovable person she was. It is funny how time changes a loss. I can truly say that while I will always miss her more than words can say, I now think of Jenn with more happiness of the times we had together than the sadness of her being gone, and I think that is how she would want it. I certainly hope that anyone else who has lost a loved one finds the same kind of peace.
Happy Birthday Jenn! You are missed every single day, and remembered with lots of love and smiles.

I’m glad you’re at the point where there are more smiles and tears. Definitely still painful and the two of you had a friendship that make me smile! <3

I agree Amy – time has changed how I feel too. That’s a cute picture – was that on her 25th birthday?
