Identity

It is 11:11pm.

I had planned on going to bed earlier tonight but then I took a chance and wrote a short story to submit to a magazine.

The subject was identity...which I'm not really sure if I nailed or not...but it did invite you to think outside the box.

I wrote about being a bereaved parent and shared mine and Elijah's story.

At first I did it because if it gets chosen I will get paid...but as I got further into the story, I was more inspired by the fact that more people could learn about Elijah and how he has changed me.

So wish me luck there...

Today the anger has lessened.

A good friend of mine invited me to lunch and I vented a lot...lol...and poor thing...she mainly just sat there and listened.

But I really want to thank her. I know it was probably akward seeing me for the first time after Elijah's passing.

I know it is awkward...but for her to step up and be a friend that cares enough to break that silence...I can't tell you how much that means.

So thank you Jackie.. You rock and I have missed you.

I also managed to get another card out in the mail today to another Angel mom...this time with a blank card and stamped envelope inside to help her send a letter to love, Elijah.

We chatted for a while and I am glad for that too.

Everyday has its ups and downs...


Oh my gosh what I would give to go back to this very moment.
I was so proud of us.
I still am.
Nothing will ever change how beautiful you are to me.

I love and miss you my boogie.

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