"May the love hidden deep inside your heart find the love waiting in your dreams. May the laughter that you find in your tomorrow wipe away the pain you find in your yesterdays."

My House Smells Like Cake

But it’s missing the laughter of an almost four year old.

Why are these celebratory days so hard? Why am I always reminded of who is missing? Will there ever be a holiday, a celebration in which I don’t think, “Gee, the Munchkin would like to participate in this!” Will my heart ever feel at peace with her absence?

Back to smothering my two-year-old with Mommy kisses. And a few extra from his sister.
