A Song for Daniel, Stillborn by Jean Felice Eilbert (his mother)
When I held you in my arms that day Born so still, born anyway How was I to know to say goodbye? No one knew just what to do Except tell me I'd get over you As if forgetting makes it all untrue -- a lie
But I remember to remember I can't forget just to forget Your memories are a part of me Connecting me to what comes next.
And even after all this while I think of you, sometimes I smile Memories of my unknown child, fade slow. I've held you in my heart each day Life so short, life anyway Memories are meant to say hello.

This Week
(taken on babybear's 3rd birthday)
This week I will remember you and celebrate you and love you...
...as I always do.
♥♥♥
Thinking of babybear on her 5th angel day and birthday (July 22 & 25)
Thinking of Bear on our 7th wedding anniversary (July 26)
Making my way through life with an angel on my shoulder and another one by my side. Follow me (and my dog) as I stumble through my new normal after the deaths of my daughter and husband.

i'm sorry for this hard month you are living here. I am thinking of your bear and sweet baby there. They are remembered in Idaho!
Thinking of you and the days ahead
July is your worst month isn't it? Hugs to you, my friend.
