Straws

My heart is so heavy today. All I can think about is how Travis loved to drink water from my cup using the straw. He wasn't very coordinated at it....his tongue stuck out a little underneath and he always spilled water down his shirt. How do I move on? I miss him so bad. This isn't fair.

  1. My heart is aching for you and your family. My son Caleb passed at 3 days old, and I'll be forever changed by him. Lots of heart hugs.

  2. I love your memories... every one you are sharing. I'm enjoying Travis so much as you share such sweet, specific details of his wonderful personality. You are epitomizing the saying "we don't remember days, we remember moments." Keep writing them down...each one is gold.

    And, you don't move on, I believe, anyway...Time takes you forward...it just pulls you with it.... Somehow little, by little, for me, I'm just learning to live with constant heartache (plenty of people live with chronic pain...for me, this is how it is...) but it is heartache combined with a calling to show how much Gwen's life blessed me, which keeps me from completely being over-taken by the pain and longing... your Love for Travis will always be your saving Grace even as it is the very essence of your pain (the most horrible pain no one can begin to imagine...because it stems from the deepest root of Love) ... at least that is all the case for me...and I'm spewing words here when really, I just want to send you love so much love and care... and thoughts of Travis and tears...

  5. Laurie said it perfect...u never move on...time just pulls u forward...but u r not expected to move on. Travis is a big part of who u are and that will never change. Your memories r so precious in that you did take time to recognize and enjoy the little moments that people in other situations might not have and u can see that Travis was so Happy and loved and u can see he adored his mama n daddy n sissy and jus so full of love. That love he was full of came from having such wonderful loving parents. You WILL BE REUNITED! Please dont lose faith in that. Much love to you and your family. I will never forget your precious boy.
