4 years today.

It's hard to believe 4 years have past since Grace's death. I don't believe that "time heals all wounds", but I do know that time removes you from that place of unbearable grief that I don't believe one could survive forever. Time also however removes things that you cherish, like Grace's scent on the clothing that I have packed away and still visit for a hug now and again. I often wonder what it must be like to live with out the weight of Grace's death impacting every moment of my existence. But then I remind my self that without it, I also most likely would not cherish every simple moment to the extent that I do or brush off most "crisis'". Really, with health, I'm thinking all is manageable. So today as I mourn Grace's death, I am reminded of my blessings to have had her, loved her and now live differently as a result of the lessons she taught me.

Mama misses you baby.
