Angie, as the others have said, it very normal, and does get better with time. What I've learned is that the oddest little things will trigger it. When my nephew passed, I found myself breaking down in a department store when I saw something with a dinosaur theme because he had been enthralled by anything with dinosaurs. When my grandpa passed, I couldn't stand to be around a certain friend when he smoked because he smoked the same brand cigarette as grendpa and the smell of the smoke was a trigger for me.

Just expect to grieve and give yourself permission to fall apart at times. It's no fun, but is necessary to get through it.
