Okay I have decided that time is going by way too fast. Burke just turned 3 the beginning of June! I can not believe it. I feel like just yesterday I was in the hospital having the little guy! We had a fun small family party and he is loving some super hero's right now so that was the theme :) Silas really wanted to jump out when he walked in and yell surprise so that is what we did :) Burke is super shy and he really wasn't a fan of it all. Pibby and Pops got him his first bike and it is SO cute. I picked up a balloon for all the kids and one special spider man one for Boo. He has always loved balloons. He said the sweetest thing....... he wanted to let his balloons go up to Mamie so she would know that it was his birthday. I couldn't believe he let his special Spider Man one go. It made me want to cry. She should be here with us. ANYWAYS, it was a fun day and I got some pictures of course and a few videos. Happy 3rd Birthday Burkie BOO! We love you so so
Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI saw this poem and immediately thought of the things that you have been through lately. What a beautiful poem and a wonderful way to sum up how you feel.
Love you,
Brit
Go ahead and mention my child,
The one that died, you know.
Don't worry about hurting me further.
The depth of my pain doesn't show.
Don't worry about making me cry.
I'm already crying inside.
Help me to heal by releasing
The tears that I try to hide.
I'm hurt when you just keep silent,
Pretending she didn't exist.
I'd rather you mention my child,
Knowing that she has been missed.
You asked me how I was doing.
I say "pretty good" or "fine".
But healing is something ongoing
I feel it will take a lifetime.

She's beautiful. :)
