Yeah I did it! There must be some of my brain left - really not so hard..
Hello all. I am still not able to navigate this site so well. i am trying to post a pic of Daniel. I get it on my page and can't seem to figure out how to post from there so I wanted to share - I will try here again.
By the way I am such an animal lover and have 3 cats and one bossy little terrier mix dog. I lost my Burmese mix, Duplo 2 years ago. He was 12 and the best doggie ever. Then last year I lost my precious kitty Monkey Boy who was also 12 and Duplo's best friend. When I look at pictures of my son with these beautiful souls I can't believe they have all gone but I like to think of them all together now. And he's not an only child in heaven. I had two late miscarriages (both girls) and I just know they are together. I find so much comfort in the animals I still have in my life. I am so grateful for them. Really so grateful.
Teresa and Dick you are in my prayers. I'll light and extra candle tonight for your children
Hello to all. Thinking of you today, as usual.
As I've said before...Crying is good for us........
When too much pressure is put on the heart, tears are its safety valve. No matter how hard we try to control ourselves, sometimes there's just no stopping them. Though we may try to sandbag our emotions, sooner or later the wall breaks, and the tears come flooding through.
They may erupt when we hear a favorite song, smell a familiar cologne, or see a family picture and remember how much we miss our loved one. Tears are unpredictable. They may surface in the middle of the night, in the middle of the grocery store, or in the middle of a conversation. Sometimes they come for no apparent reason at all.
That's the mystery of grief: it's personal and unique. No two people grieve exactly the same way. But most (if not all) will say that the journey through the valley of tears is normal and necessary. So grab a Kleenex (or a box or two) and allow your tears to relieve the pressure from your hurting heart.

Dear Dawn
It is hard to write and reply. I found it so hard to tell anyone how I was feeling. But I took the chance and it's helping.
There are no wrong words.
Your handsome young man with a beautiful smile.
It's good to see these pictures here.
I know our sadness is contagious, but it's also a comfort.
Thank you to all who share their most personal pain.
We love our children so deeply.
This is the only place I feel comfortable.
This is the place where we can take off our mask.
Dick, hugs to you...and hopefully, you'll get some from Daniel today.
It feels as though we get to "know" and love one another's children on this site. We ache for one another as well as ourselves. Thank God for each and every one of you!
Hugs and many prayers!
Dear Adrianne
It's so hard each and every minute of each and every day.
The "reminder days" are equally tough.
Thinking of you
