4 long years since I lost Danny. I am still grieving deeply, church today was like picking a sore. I miss and love you so much.

I you would like to know Danny, take a look at his Youtube video, https://youtu.be/WmfvoVTives or search for "My Buddy XOXO".

Thanks for listening to my grief.

the other amazing thing happened a few days later when we were back up on the mountain again .. right at the spot where I saw the mama deer and her fawn a few months ago I saw something flit by ... I looked out the door and there were at least FOUR red crested woodpeckers sitting on logs and/or the ground eating I guess... I have only seen ONE woodpecker in all the years we have owned this place and THAT was also after Brandon died... this time they even sat and preened and cleaned each other off ... let us take many flash pictures of them.. but they were bad pics because we didn't dare open the door and had to shoot through the screen... I will put one in here if any come out ok after I fix them up some... what a sight it was... just amazing things have happened around us since Brandon died... I feel like God is telling us that Brandon is all around us always in some way.... and sends these creatures and wonders to remind us of the power God has and the eternal LIFE we all have....

two more amazing things happened .. a week ago we were on the mountain playing music and I noticed a brilliant swatch of rainbow shining on the wall of the kitchen next to where we were playing.. I traced it to a crystal in the kitchen window over the sink.. the colors were exquisite and some of you know about my history of seeing rainbows after Brandon died.. two FIRE rainbows which I didn't even know existed before I saw TWO on two different occasions the year after Brandon died... I know the kitchen rainbow was the sun shining through the crystal.. BUT that crystal has been lying in that window for probably 30 years and I have NEVER seen a rainbow like this one come through it.. in fact I don't remember ANY rainbows coming from it once it fell from the string it was hanging from... before that when it was hanging, it would send little bits of swirling rainbows around but never anything like this last time... it made me think again of Brandon being there for the music...or IN the music... with all of heaven.... singing an dancing in the trees, sending us rainbows.... does it help? I think it does... I do..

I keep thinking of you Sharon, we are on the exact same road, timewise. How are we going to survive...i feel your heartache today. Our babies arrived to heaven almost the same time. I sure hope they are okay and can help our troubled souls down here.

I know Rj. I read that the 6 month mark is especially hard. Today is Troy's 6 month mark. We are both at the same stage in our grief. I can't stop thinking about him. Thoughts of him consume me. This is so awful, the pain never goes away. Hugs to you. I hope your day gets better.

Troy's mom forever

At work yesterday...i was actually laughing, today i cant stop this sobbing. How can a body survive such ups and downs. I really wish i could go now, just be with him. Such a bad day

There is a teenager on a commercial that from one angle looks EXACTLY like my son, from the clothes he's wearing to his haircut. It gave me chills. I actually stopped the tv and took a picture of it. Oh if only....my heart is longing for the life we once had....my life is so empty without him.

It is amazing how much we all have in common. So many young men around 27, who resemble larry,i now notice every day. I just stare and think that should be larry, out and about, enjoying life! Why! Laurie, i was behind a car, he had the same hair cut, glasses and from the back and side , it looked so much like my boy. Needless to say, i was crushed....again.

Teresa, agree with everything you wrote approaching year 3. I too search for my son in crowds....when a young man looks like him from the backside my heart just stops...just for a millisecond I want to believe it is him...guess the year of magical thinking has lasted longer for me

So true jill. I am actually hoping to move from ohio to south Carolina in the spring. I know i will slways carry the emptiness but the daily reminders will always be here. I want nothing to do with my house, going to sell it, quit my job and start new. Larry will never pull up in this driveway to visit again. I will be making some big changes
