I did not travel anywhere this summer (except for work or taking kids back to school) and I enjoyed being able to just stay put after all my trips back and forth to Jamaica to see my mom in the last year of her life. We look for the silver linings. It doesn't mean we don't miss them and wish we could hold them once more.
