A year ago today was a perfect day. Lily and I went to Walmart and picked out a toy to donate to Toys for Tots. When we left the store the Marines were standing outside with the box. She proudly put her toy in the box and shook his hand. She had the biggest smile [...]
A year ago today was the last time that I saw my baby girl. As my family and friends gathered around and filled her casket with candy, toys, books, blankets and everything that meant something to give to her. She was dressed in her Christmas dress, with a santa hat and princess crown. She had [...]
November 15,2011 Getting ready to go to bed and thinking about the song I used to sing to Lily with her CD. "Lily close your eyes, mothers right here beside. Precious angels are near, Lily have no fear. Precious angels are near, little child I am here." I love you Lily to infinity and beyond [...]

Lily today I thought about our trip to Splash Village for my birthday. Holding you after a wonderful day together getting ready for bed, I remembered you saying, "Mommy, I love my Owen." You hadn't seen him in 3 months. Your voice was so compassionate. I love your love for others. You are the best [...]
This weekend by the slip n slide, "Toes" came on the radio and all I could do was smile. I remembered the time that you started singing it "I got my toes in the water, ASS in the sand", with a big smile on your face because you knew you weren't supposed to say that. [...]
