Thanks Through Tears

It's been a rough week, a lot of tears and a lot of heartache. Too much saying good-bye, watching love walk away again, holding another love through his last shuddered breath of life, burying a tiny box under the budding Japanese Maple. But even through the sadness and tears, there are so many reasons to be thankful:
