The other day, we were driving home from breakfast. Tummies bulging, and feeling a bit sleepy, Little A calls out from the back-seat:
"Daddy--what's your brother's name?".
Just out of nowhere.
Peter replies, "You know my brother's name."
She pipes out, "Is it Kim Hong?".
It has been a little over a year, since Kim Hong died. I don't think that time has eased his passing for his wife Kimberly. I spoke to her over the phone, just a few weeks back. She sounded wonderful--but did share with me how the anniversary date of his death was so very difficult for her.
I remember when she told me that she didn't know where Kim ended and she began. I am not sure that time ever will be able to heal the sense of loss that she feels. I hope that it will. I wish I could be more optimistic.
We managed to share some laughs, and talk openly. It has always been so easy for Kimberly and I. I am looking forward to spending some time with her this summer.
