The last lines of your post "Duncan has been a part of our lives in a way that is wholly and uniquely his. And it is perfect. It is unscripted. Unforced. Unpretentious." speak so profoundly to me. You are allowing him to be who he is in your life, with all the pain and grief that brings. You have honored him and his place in your family and I am honored to know Duncan in this small way today. Thank you for sharing his story.Lacyhttp://somesmiths.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659002609114323697.post-51309651671875426102013-01-18T00:28:23.974-05:002013-01-18T00:28:23.974-05:00Thank you for sharing your precious Duncan.Thank you for sharing your precious Duncan.Elena's Echoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04597195687343663194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659002609114323697.post-15743304140913205332013-01-18T00:27:01.668-05:002013-01-18T00:27:01.668-05:00Thank you for sharing Duncan.Thank you for sharing Duncan.Elena's Echoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04597195687343663194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5659002609114323697.post-62667712007687607322012-05-07T00:47:17.309-04:002012-05-07T00:47:17.309-04:00I came to your blog to read about paint colors, an...I came to your blog to read about paint colors, and found my way to Duncan's story.
