I spent more than 4 hours today putting up a tree that I thought would only take me 30 minutes.
I battled with emotions. I battled with rain. I battled with wind.
The tree fell numerous times.
I surprisingly did not cry until the car ride home.
Then I found myself in an ugly fit pleading with God to just give him back. I don't know how, I don't really care how...I just want him back.
This week is going to be hard.
I need miracles...miracles upon miracles.
Pray for my family. Pray for Elijah.
And while you are thanksgiving with your family, hug your grandparents and your children tighter than ever. Tell your husband or wife that you love them. And Thank you parents...even if they are hard on you. I promise you are the most important thing in their life.
If you are in or around Clermont, Fl stop by and see the Love Elijah Holiday Remembrance tree. It is not finished, but it is very special to me and the parents whose children's names have been added to the tree.
Oh sweet Elijah.
I miss kissing your little feet. I miss holding you sweetly. I miss everything that I could possibly miss about you.
I love you so so so so so so so so so much... And then some more.
