to feel utterly exhausted, just emotionally worn out after the last two days

[TrinityIsAFuckingRhino]

fathers day and then today was dhs birthday

dd2 has been sobbing for almost two days
dd1 broke down when we sang happy birthday to him
gecko has been asking lots and lots of questions about how he died and wrote, I miss you in his cards

probably a good thing in a way for dd2 as she hasn't sobbed as much over this period in the past years, maybe its a moving on in the grieving process, I don't know

all I do know is thats its breaking my fucking heart

I just want to make them feel better

must have been hard for you all :(

my dad died on fathers day, and even though it was 18 years ago, and I was a young adult then, the day itself is one that I cant avoid due to the commercialism, and I breathe a sigh of relief when the 19th June has passed, (that was the date of FD that year).

I want to say something soothing, and deep and meaningful and kind.
I just cant becuase i just dont know what to say.

Just hug them, have wine, and know that you are doing a good job x

see shite coming out, sorry Trinity xxxx

quiet and gentle hugs for you all.

Try again:

thanks everyone

Thoughts are with you Trinity

I dread Fathers Day (mine died when I was 4) and have done for as long as I can remember. But I wish my Mum had as least acknowledged the day, like your good self, instead of pretending it never happened. I'm sure it will help them, and you.

I am sorry. I really don't know what to say. Hugs to you and your dcs.
