I am sorry to get so personal on Facebook. For me, right now, it is easier to write one message to everyone. I was not able to tell Gavin until tonight. He was so very close to his grandfather, and I needed to make sure that I had time to spend with him. He was able to go on his field trip today and watch football films with his team. Work was a fine distraction until I could be with him. I can’t see my mom until she gets home, but I may drive to her tomorrow if she is stuck one more day-I can’t believe all of the logistics when you die in another state. Gavin is VERY sad and in shock-as we all are. His first words were that he wanted to go to school tomorrow and be with his friends. This provided me some comfort to know that he has such a strong support team and community. If I ever doubted having him in at St. Charles, I have erased them all from memory tonight. It is so strange that this week was so hard for me- couldn’t focus, or arrange my thoughts. It is almost as if my spirit knew. All I keep thinking about is the peaceful feeling that came over me when I received his last text message. I will never forget that feeling as long as I live. I was driving out of St. Pat’s parking lot after dropping one of Gavin’s football buddies off. I stopped the car and smiled to return it…something I NEVER do. I said “awesome.” Ted-my stepfather was one of a kind-giving-caring-he loved and loved and always seemed to be enjoying life. I am still in shock and so very sad. Thank you for all of your offers of love and support. I have not had one opportunity to talk on the phone. I have either been talking to my mom, in front of Gavin-who I couldn’t tell, or working.
