one year

We are coming up on the one year anniversary of Taylor's death and I am just not sure what to do. We want to do something to remember him, but I don't want to have a re funeral or anything. Just remember the beautiful baby he is. I've been thinking a lot about him and the fun this we were doing last year at this time. He was about to get out of his harness, his hip had finally finished forming. He had just discovered how fun toys were and he was beginning to interact more with us. He still loved to sleep all day and snuggle with mommy and daddy whenever he could. I really miss him. But I am glad to know that he is healthy and happy. That's where the confusion is for me. I'm happy for him, but I want him with me. I want everyone to get to meet him and know the special little boy he is. I feel sad that others can't do that now. He is a beautiful person.

Jen,

I am sure that he has been on your mind, it is so wonderful to be able to look back at the times with him. You really are a wonderful Mother, you have been though a lot. I am so grateful you were able to have Taylor. He has blessed the lives of so many people. The love and faith that I was able to witness will always be a part of my life. I think of him often as I remember my dearest cousin Jenni and see what an impact he has made in her life! I hope you do hold onto the love and joy that he brought you. I love you!

Hey, it has been almost ten years since my mom died and I still think of her much more around the time she died. I know she is working for me and looking out for my family, but sometimes I just want to hear her voice. Perfectly normal conflicting emotions. Love and Prayers
