Second angelversary
My sweet girl,
We just passed your second angelversary. Now it has been two years since you left us for Heaven with all it's wonders. I know with every day, week, and month that pass I am closer to being with you again. Not a day passes, nor an hour that I don't think of you and miss you more than I can describe.
We are moving on with life, simply because we have to. Daddy goes to work, David does his school work, and I get up and put one foot in front of the other as if I am in robot mode. I do the housework and try to stay busy. That is the way I am coping with not being able to call you or see you on earth anymore.
I scanned some pictures today to a disk. As I look at those pictures of all your growing up years, the tears start. I want you back so much. But I wouldn't call you back to this earth so you'd have pain or sorrow such as we have. Where you are there is peace, I know, and joy beyond anything this earth could afford.
I found out that Jeff and his new wife are expecting a baby. I cried all day after I heard that news. I cried for the babies you might have given daddy and me and Jeff; the life that was cut short before you could share that kind of good news with everyone; the fact that Jeff is moving on with his life and we have no part in his anymore. I guess I'm sad because he has found someone to take your place in his life and life goes on for him and his family. And we are so lonely for the place you filled in our lives. We had come to love him and now he has no more place for us in his existence. It hurts that we have lost you and him, too.
We had a special time for your birthday on Feb. 26. It would have been your 25th birthday and you were not here.
Our love for you will never die. Noone can take it from us.
I love you and send you special kisses as I mark your 25th birthday and second angelversary.
Mama
