If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together, there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think;
but the most important thing is, even if we're apart,
I will always be with you.

Our Rainbow is here...

I've been MIA on here for the past 5 weeks... and it's not because I've forgotten... no definitely not... I just didn't know what to post... I've been battling mixed feelings since Declan was born (safe and healthy, thank God). I love him to bits and am so happy he's here but still feel sad and lost because I don't have my Kaelen.

The first Wednesday after Declan arrived, my husband had gone to work, and I was home alone thinking and I posted on facebook that I didn't know I could be blissfully happy and sad at the same time... and that about sums it up. I love Declan to bits and am soooooo relieved that he arrived safe and sound but he looks sooooo much like Kaelen that it's hard to reconcile my grief with my joy...

Anyway, he's here and happy and healthy and growing like a weed and we are doing good... I'll post more later when I can... when my brain isn't as befuddled... I'll leave you with a beautiful picture of my little guy.


I love you baby boy... my sweet Kaelen... I still think of you every day and wish you were all here with me instead of in Heaven... Sending you all my hugs and kisses baby...

Love you always,
