Heavy Eyes

It is 10:58pm.

Moses is playing in the background on the T.V.

Yes, we made it to Florida.

No, I ended up not going to work....although I really tried.

When we got here it took them over an hour to get our hotel room cleaned, which I didn't complain about, because normal check in time is not usually until 4pm and they were doing us a huge favor by cleaning the room just to get us in.... but then when we finally got in the room there was no hot water.

My stomach was already killing me, and now I was pressed for no time, had been up for over 24 hours, and had no shower. I just could not go to work like that, so I called in.

And I slept...I slept hard.

And I am still tired.

Last night on the way home I cried a lot.

I cried from Louisiana to Alabama...and then somewhere in Florida the Patty Loveless song, "How can I help you say goodbye?" Came on, and I cried more.

My eyes are heavy today.

Tomorrow is Easter....another holiday without him.

Another day without him...

It is going to be a hard one.

I am thinking about bringing the boys for a hike, but it rained today, and I'm not sure if it will be too muddy...or if it is supposed to rain again tomorrow...

I will find some sort of distraction.

Just keep praying for me...pray for my family...and always pray for my Elijah.

I miss him so much.



Oh sweet sweet boy. We miss you bunches. How amazing the celebration for Easter must be in heaven. All I could have ever given you was a basket and a bunny and lots of love-but I would have loved to give it to you anyway. I will read you your new story tomorrow night. It will be hard, but I will share it with you and your brothers. I love you soooooooooo very much. I miss you always.

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...
