Four Months Ago

Today.............. well it has been four months since we lost our beautiful boy James. Not a day, hour, minute goes by that I don't think of him. My wonderful mum reminded me on Monday of the amazing full moon on the night he passed away, and now ever month it is such a strong reminder of James watching over us all. The moon last night was just amazing, peeping out from behind the clouds. I tried to get a photo but it just didn't look any good. Did not capture what I was seeing. I would like to thank all the people that everyday think of us and remember our James. He was an amazing boy who touched so many lives. I am still hearing of wonderful stories of how he touched people and the way that they remember him.

Ok, onto how we are going, Shane has got some big jobs coming up next month in Seabird and we would like to thank Andrew and Deb for recommending Shane. We will be forever greatful of this work that is keeping a roof over our heads. Shane is enjoying being his own boss, but seems to be busy all the time. I think sometimes he would like another pair of hands so he isn't so tired when he comes home of an evening.

Brent has just finished his first set of Year 11 exams. He feels that he went ok, Brent got some of his results today, which I was amazed at and he was very happy with them. Chemistry was 82% which is an 'A' in the old way. Physics he got half of the test back, 80% which was also very good. He is very happy so far, but is a bit hesitant with his Specialist Maths subject, apparently it is quite hard. As long as he passes that is all we ask of him.

Liam is going good at the moment. Doing lots of sport at school with Interschool carnivals and lunch time football matches. It is all very exciting.

Now to me, I have got some relief work at the primary school and today was at our local Realestate agent, who is a friend. It has all been well timed, when I am feeling my lowest someone rings me and askes if I can help them. It is amazing how it has worked lately. People just seem to ring me and get me out of the house when I need it most. They think I am doing them a favour but in reality it is helping me more than ever. I have struggled to think of what I am going to do now, with all this free time on my hands, but doing relief work at the moment is helping to know that I can still be of value to people. My days start out hard, but end with me feeling exhausted but full filled and feeling better about what I have accomplished in the day.

Thank you to everyone that still follows us. For thinking of James and keeping him alive in our hearts and around us every day.

James Christopher Thomas
