OH HOW I MISS THIS CUTE LITTLE BABY OF MINE!
TODAY IS MEMORIAL DAY, AND I AM FOREVER THANKFUL FOR THE VETERANS WHO FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM EVERYDAY. I AM THANKFUL FOR THEIR FAMILIES WHO HAVE THE COURAGE TO LET THEM GO, NOT KNOWING IF THEY WILL RETURN OR NOT.
SO TODAY I REMEMBER THE SOLDIERS WHO SACRIFICE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.
BUT, ALSO AM REMEMBERING KOLBI MAE...HER SMILE, HER LAUGH, HER CRY, HER WHINE, HER HUGS, HER KISSES, AND THE LOVE SHE BROUGHT INTO OUR HOME!
EVERY MORNING HAS BEEN A STRUGGLE FOR ME SINCE THE DAY OF THE ACCIDENT, THE KIDS WOULD GET HER OUT OF BED AND SHE WOULD COME RUNNING INTO MY ROOM I WOULD ALWAYS GREET HER AT THE CORNER OF MY BED, SHE WOULD GIVE ME A BIG HUG AND THEN I WOULD SNEEK IN A KISS ON HER CHUBBY CHEEK THAT WAS ALWAYS SOOO SOFT. THEN OFF SHE'D GO TO PLAY WITH THE BIG KIDS.
OH HOW I MISS THOSE MORNINGS! OTHER MORNINGS SHE WOULDN'T LET KYSON OR TAIGE GET HER OUT OF HER CRIB, SHE WOULD JUST YELL, "MMMMOM!" AND WAIT TO GIVE ME HER MORNING LOVE UNTIL I WOULD PICK HER UP AND SET HER ON THE FLOOR.
"THOSE WE LOVE DON'T GO AWAY,
THEY WALK BESIDE US EVERYDAY,
UNSEEN, UN HEARD, BUT ALWAYS NEAR,
STILL LOVED , STILL MISSED, AND VERY DEAR."
