| Post subject: | Today is the three year mark |
It has been three years today that my precious granddaughter, Paige Nicole has been gone. She was only two when she left us. My daughter and I and our whole family have been having a rough time today. It just doesn't seem to get any easier. I made a special dinner and then arranged three dozen long stemmed pink roses in a crystal vase and lit pink candles in her memory all around my home. My thoughts are with Paige so much today and this seemed like something I could do to honor her memory. Her grave is about a six hour drive from my home and it has stormed all day long. Her birthday is on March the 18th, and right after she died, I purchased 100 helium filled pink and white balloons for the family to release on that day. I'm thinking of doing the same this year on March 18th. We miss her so much. I wrote the following poem for her last night. It's called What Is Perfection? What is perfection? A small face filled with sunshine, a pink rosebud mouth that's always smiling? Huge baby blues, always shining with an inner light brighter than the stars? Golden soft spun head of hair that rivals the fairest day? Is perfection hearing laughter that sounds like tiny bells? Or the way this perfect child smelled so sweet, when you held her in your arms? What is perfection? I already know the answer, perfection was the littlest angel who stole my heart and ran away with it, all the while laughing. |

Thank you for sharing your poem. It is beautiful. I am planing a balloon release for Laura's birthday on 2/26. It will be our first birthday without her. I will never stop missing her. |
