[tri-wings] Re: Birthdays & Angel days - Grace's angel day

Thanks Atousa, I needed the kind words.  This is the one year
anniversary of her angel day and I am really not sure how to handle it.
A part of me thinks we should recognize it and try and celebrate her
"heavenly birthday" (I think I remember LouAnn calling it that and I
just love that).  But, then there's an even bigger part of me that wants
to stay busy and just try and get through the day - treat it as any
other day.  I am so scared that if I recognize it I will head straight
back to the really dark place that I was in last year at this time.  I
am so thankful that I have Nicholas now...not that he will ever replace
Grace, but I just think that this time would be completely awful if I
didn't have him to be so thankful for.  And, of course Matthew too -
that goes without saying.

Have I mentioned lately how thankful I am for all of my angel mom's???
You guys are the best!

Hugs,

Brenda - wife to Rich, mommy to Matthew Alexander(2), Grace Alexandra
(^i^ 8/31/03 full T-13) and Nicholas Andrew (arrived 8/10/04)

Brenda,
Thinking of you on Grace's Birthday/Angle Day....hope it's a gentle
one....give Nicholas extra hugs and I'm sure Grace is looking down at
y'all
and giving big sister smiles and maybe a little chocolate cake on her
face
;-)
