8 years of missing your smile and craving your positive energy. I thank God for the time he allowed me to spend with you. I thank your parents for entrusting me to be your Godmother. I love you past the moon and then some. Missing you like crazy!!! Love you my sweet Godson. ❤️

It’s been 8 years of missing you daily son. Time has eased some of the pain and now my good memories of you flood my mind more. You finally appeared to me in my dreams and let me know that you’re okay. I thank God for the time we had on earth. I pray and repent for the forever time will spend when my life is over. Kiss my grandson, grandma, nephew, grandpas, and your aunts for me. I love you Trey always and forever son. Until we meet again in love and our eternal home. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Happy sweet 16 my love! I couldn’t imagine you not being here for this big milestone but our reality is that imagination and memories of you is what we have left. Your party would have been so fun; however I know your amazing pain and tumor free party in heaven was magical. I miss you everyday son. I still ache with sorrow but I know you want me to keep moving for your sisters. I am going to beg the Father for Birthday do overs when I get there so put in a good word for me until. Eternally loving you baby❤️! Mommy

May God continue to be with you and your family.

Just for Today – For Bereaved Parents
 
Just for today I will try to live through the next 24 hours
and not expect to get over my child’s death,
but instead learn to live with it, just one day at a time.
 
Just for today I will remember my child’s life, not just her death,
and bask in the comfort of all those treasured days
and moments we shared.
 
Just for today I will forgive all the family and friends
who didn’t help or comfort me the way I needed them to.
They truly did not know how.
 
Just for today I will smile no matter how much I hurt on the inside,
for maybe if I smile a little,
my heart will soften and I will begin to heal.
 
Just for today I will reach out to comfort a relative or friend of my child,
for they are hurting too,
and perhaps we can help each other.
 
Just for today I will free myself from my self-inflicted burden of guilt,
for deep in my heart I know if there was anything in this world
I could of done to save my child from death,
I would of done it.
 
Just for today I will honor my child’s memory
by doing something with another child
because I know that would make my own child proud.
 
Just for today I will offer my hand in friendship
to another bereaved parent
for I do know how they feel.
 
Just for today when my heart feels like breaking,
I will stop and remember that grief is the price we pay for loving
and the only reason I hurt is because
I had the privilege of loving so much
 
Just for today I will not compare myself with others.
I am fortunate to be who I am
and have had my child for as long as I did.
 
Just for today I will allow myself to be happy,
for I know that I am not deserting her by living on.
 
Just for today I will accept that I did not die when my child did,
my life did go on,
and I am the only one who can make that life worthwhile once more.

Happy 15th Birthday!! My heart is shattering with the wonder of what you would look like now. mommy loves you so and I will never let you go from my heart, mind, or soul.

Tre, you are missed dearly, and you will always be in my heart. Auntie loves you soooo much.

I love you, I miss you, and I wish you were here to kiss your handsome teenage face (even though it would embarrass you). This day you went to be with God out of pain. I cannot wait to see you again, my son. I hope I will be worthy enough to see your smiling face. Rest easy my baby.

We love and miss you so much Tre. You are forever in my heart...You made me a better person.

Happy Birthday my loving, beautiful baby boy. This day was one of my most glorious days to be blessed with a gift like you. I can only imagine now what you would look like at 14 years old. I know that heaven throws the best birthday parties so if you get a chance blow one of those sweet kisses to me. I love you. Mommy

Mommy is having your baby sister tomorrow. I wish you were here to meet her and protect her and be the greatest big brother. I know you sent her to me save my life from the heartbreak of loosing you but no one will ever mend it or take your place. I still long for that beautiful day that I will hold you again my beautiful baby boy. Until then I will honor your memory and love your sisters for you and me.

This Thanksgiving is not happy without you. It is going to feel strange, lonely, and heartbreaking all over again. I am going to stand at a table with people who love and miss you and say that I am thankful that one day I will be able to see you again, happy, out of pain, and in my arms to love forever. Mommy loves you.

Well baby yesterday would have been a day of fun for us. I enjoyed going to buy your costume and dressing up with you. I miss you so much. It rips me apart over again to not have you (my buddy) here with us. I love you and I long to see you again someday.

I miss you so much and I think of you everyday. I cry everyday and my heart breaks daily because you are not here. Mommy loves you, sugar bean.

Happy 13th Birthday my sweet angel. Mommy will always and forever love you even in death.

My heart is broken hearing your story. I'm so sorry.

Wishing you were here to kiss your face and sing Happy Birthday. Godmomma's sweet angel I miss you with everything in me.
