Cute Storey
Hi Everyone,
I miss my girl a lot tonight. I find my self constantly thinking of what Grace would be like today if she were still physically with us. I try to develop her personality in my mind to the age that she would be at today and then try to use this to make guesses at how she would be interacting with her new brother or how she would be anticipating Christmas or even if she would have enjoyed the big snow fall that we got today. Would she be bundled up and outside with Dada and George, or content inside with Mama and Eli? With every milestone of Eli's I remember when Grace accomplished that same milestone and then I wonder how she would be reacting to Eli's success today. I continue to miss her so very much and although Eli brings me so much joy the pain of losing Grace fails to subside. I also find that as time passes my fear of forgetting details of Grace is becoming reality. The other day I was speaking about Grace to her Papa... we spoke of Eli sharing her bossy personality when Papa reminded me of the time... just after Grace's second brain surgery... when the neuro surgeon came into our hospital room to examine her. He took his stethoscope and placed it on her head so he could listen to the flow of the fluid surrounding her brain to insure that the surgery had not interrupted this. Grace reached up to where he had placed the stethoscope and removed it from her head with a disgruntle "NO" and then happily placed it on her chest. See Grace had her vitals taken at minimum every 4 hours, 24 hours a day every day she was in hospital. When this was done the nurses would listen to her heart using the stethoscope. When the doctor put it on her head... she was convinced he was doing it wrong and corrected him. We all laughed (including the doctor) and he entertained her by listening to her heart although being a neuro surgeon he was only interested in her brain. If you have a cute storey about Grace I'd love to hear it. Email me at lcompagnon@cogeco.ca.
Mama misses you baby.
