one small box

It's 10:14pm.

I'm listening to Levi read this funny little parody of a parent and child's conversation.

Most of it is about saying no and telling your kids no, youtube, and shoes.

It is our life.

We have three boys here on Earth that keep us busy and I just want to take a moment to acknowledge that I love them and am thankful for them.

I love Elijah and miss him dearly, but I need to acknowledge my other children too.

So, I Love you Alex, Julien and Gabriel.

Elijah was so lucky to have you as big brothers. I know he shines down on you all the time.



Today I started my love, Elijah post office project.

If you are face book friends with me I'm sure you have seen the post, but maybe your not, so I am going to share it anyway:

The Love Elijah Project:

A post office box for mothers and fathers who have lost their babies or children to miscarriages, abortion, still birth, sids, or any other tragic event. Here you can send any memories, regrets, artwork, postcards, letters, birthday cards,  ANYTHING to honor your babies and children.

love,elijah

(this is a locked p.o. box that only one person has access to)

You can mail in complete confidence that your mail will be kept confidential unless you would like to share. If you chose to share, please include the hash tag #loveelijah somewhere on your package and it will be shared on instagram on our love, Elijah page (loveelijah0605) to help encourage mothers and fathers to talk about the loss of their children.



One day I plan to make a museum and garden with all the letters and artwork I receive. But one day at a time right now.



Elijah, I Love you to the moon and beyond. You are my inspiration. You are in my heart. And everything I do is for you. We are going to move mountains together kid. Your love will light my way.

1,520 days: Overwhelm.

It is 8:49am. Everyone is still asleep... I have my "happy light" shining into my  peripheral  vision, and my vitamins and medic...
