Dear Moms
I went to our area newspaper today to place a Thanksgiving message to Nicky thought I'd share
As the months go by,and time moves on
I can hear you tell me"Ma ya gotta stay strong"
The tears flow readily,for it broke my heart
On the day God took you and our ways did part
Not a second goes by that I don't think of you
I look around lost and say "what do I do"
Your smell,your laugh,your joking ways
Creep up and smother me most of the days
Oh tell me son why did you have to leave?
The pain with your passing,chokes me till I can't beathe
Life isn't the same how can it be so?
For your presence is missed down here below
I'll set you a platter this Thanksgiving day
And pray to the Father to show me the way
Beautiful Barb. I think it is touching and I too am having a hard time with the approaching holidays as I am sure we all are. What a moving tribute to Nicky.
What a beautiful poem I am sure Nicky will be watching over you on thanksgiving letting you know he is not completly gone.
Nearly six years has gone by since our daughter was taken from us and the holidays are still very difficult. We always made Thanksgiving dinner together she made that awful green bean casserole. I know I would not mind it now if I could have her back I would just eat it .
That is a very nice message and always know that Nicky is watching over you. These will be our 1st holidays without Travis and I know they will be very difficult for all of us.
Awesome Barb! That is a very nice poem. I am thankful we had Lisa the years that we had her and how empty our lives would have been without her all these years. I can't even imagine. We too will have trouble with the holidays. We even made our Christmas Cards (through Shutterfly of course) up early in case it is too overwhelming dealing with not having her here. Our minister believes that God does not take our angels but it is because we live in a world full of evil. He believes what God does do is takes care of our angels and brings others around to help us through these so desperate times. I believe that now more than ever. On Thanksgiving I will be thankful for all the moms that I have met as I shutter to think where I would be without all of you. Love to you all. Laura
