There's a quote that reminds me of you - "Grief never ends, but it changes. It's a passage, a place to visit but not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith... It is the price of love."
Happy birthday, TJ. You are so loved, friend. xoxo

Happy Birthday in Heaven Son
by kidaca

I wish you were here today
even for just a little while
so I could say Happy Birthday "son"
and see your beautiful smile.

The only gifts today will be
the gifts you left behind;
The laughter, joy and happiness...
precious memories...the best kind.

Today I'll do my very best
to try and find a happy place...
struggling to hide my heavy heart
and the tears on my face.

I'll sit quietly and look at your picture
thinking of you with love;
hoping you're doing ok
in Heaven up above.

May the angels hold you close and
sing you a happy song...
and I'll be sending wishes to you
today and all year long.

Today makes 4 years since you left us. The pain is still just as hard to bear as it was the moment I was told you were gone. Jacob was talking about you today, saying how he missed you and wish you were here. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and wish that you were here. I miss you so much. Love Mom

February 24, 2010

Dear Son,
Today you would have been 31. It sounds so young when I say it out loud. You were just a baby to me when you left and you will always be my baby. What would you be doing today? Where would you be living (probably at home)? What kind of job would you have? I hate that I have to have these questions in my head, not having you here to hear your voice, to see your face, to touch you , or to yell at you(you know what I mean). I wish I could change things, go back in time. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you and now Papa is there with you. I can't help but smile and wonder if you two are behaving yourselves, I hope not, I hope you’re having a blast. I miss you both so much. Until we are all together again, know how much I love and miss you both.
Love Mom

Dear Son,

Dear Son,

My favorite time of year is here and its time for our Halloween party once again. It wasn't the same without you last year and I know it won't be as fun again without you trying your best to scare the little ones. They do ask for you! When it comes time to bust the pinata, they all call for you. I miss you the most during this time of year. All the holidays are coming up and that empty feeling becomes like a weight around my heart. I miss you more than words could ever express. Know how much I love and miss you,

I look at your picture everyday and wish you were on your way home from work, outside in the yard or talking to me on the phone. My heart will never stop aching for you and wishing that May 30, 2006 had ended with you at home in your bed. I miss you more and more everyday. Until we are all together again know how much we Love You always and forever!

Hey there nephew! You know they dont allow nearly enough room to say everything in my heart. I dont listen to our song as much as i used to but i guess you know that.Its not any easier, just not as hard to pretend that youre not really gone.I miss you so much and I know we will be together again.Til then, I LOVE YOU! Auntie Shel

Dear Son,
Today will be two years. Its still hard for me to accept that your not comming home. I think about you more and more everyday. Everything I do and say somehow reflects on you. A silly gesture or a corny joke. If heartache and tears could bring you back you would have only be gone a few seconds. The night that I heard the most horrfic news that any mother could ever hear, still lingers in my mind. I would give anything to have you here with us. Until we are all together again, know how much you are loved and missed.
