Everyone so far has very good advice. It’s all about time. Time will keep going. It’s up to you to realize and accept that. You may always miss that person….or not. The one constant in anyone’s life is really only time. It does get easier….it changes. Always does. You’re a parent so you have a priority and obligation as a parent to make sure you keep going. You may have moments where you don’t ….it’s normal ..it will happen. But don’t make the mistake of staying in that moment. Remember your child …occupy your mind and time will do the rest. Think of it that way. Time can carry some of that emotional load if you let it.
