It's hard to believe that it is three years today that Niel earned his angel wings. If you would have told me that I would still be here three years ago, I would not have believed you. I didn't know how to survive a day without my sweet Niel, let alone three years...but here I am with tears running down my face...wishing my sweet boy a Happy Angelversary. I miss him every day. We all do. He had a way of seeing everyone and making them feel special. His smile...his laugh...his sense of humor...they all brightened this world with a special warmth...and they still do! Niel is still with me...every day. I feel his presence and hear his voice in my heart and in my head. I guess that is how I have made it three years without him here...in truth...he never left. He is right here...always. He gives us beautiful signs and synchronicities that let us know...I'm right here Momma...it's all good! The grief waves still come and take me down. They will never stop, but I have found a way to let Niel hold me through them and help me stay afloat. What once felt unbearable, is now a sacred process of missing my boy and letting him shelter me through the tough days. Thank you to all who remember our boy and speak his name to us. I love it when you share a memory or tell me that you felt Niel close to you. His sunshine shines on and so does his love. So...Happy Angelversary sweet man...I love you to the moon and beyond!
