Happy Birthday

September 3, 2013



Dear Baby Girl,


Happy Birthday.


I miss you.


I miss your hugs, your smiles, and the way your eyes sparkled.  And so much more.


Time is supposed to make it easier, and I suppose in a lot of ways it does, but I don't think I'll ever quite get over wishing I could wrap my arms around you and hold you close.


It's been a hectic year for us.  Your brother is taller than me now, and busier.  Not busier than me.  Just busier than he used to be.  He loves sc...

Things To Say

Things to Say


 


Someday I might get around to making a list of all the things not to say to a grieving parent, but for today I am focusing on the positives.  It's a good place to be.  J  J



People often say nothing when they want to say something because they are afraid that in their attempt to say something, they will say the wrong thing.  I understand that.  I used to be like that.  Having been in the position, though, of being avoided because people don'...

In October 2011 we took our daughter to the emergency room for what we thought was a concussion.  The doctor ordered a CT scan.



"It's probably nothing."


"It's just a precaution."


It turned out not to be nothing.  There was a mass in my daughter's brain.  A large one.
