This weeks Mommy and Me Monday is a little different and bittersweat for me. I have a fabulous photo of Mees and I from this week playing in the living room. She is just way too cute not to put pics up of her AT ALL TIMES!!!
On top of MY mommy and me photos, I'm going to add one more. This weekend has been...well....pretty shitty. Maryah passed away on Saturday morning after a long hard battle with cancer (that nasty ass C word). My heart aches for her and for HER mom. There really are NO words. What do you say to someone who has lost a child? There are no words of comfort and there is no way that anyone could even begin to imagine what that must feel like unless you have been in that situation.
We know that she is finally at peace and in the arms of the Lord but nontheless it SUCKS!! So for Rach and Ry I'm adding a Mommy and Me photo for the two of you. Rachel, I know that your heart is broken and will never be whole again but know that she is still with you ALL the time! I feel honored that you shared your beautiful daughter with the world....she has definitely left her footprint on my heart. I miss her and will never forget.
I'm reminding you all again.....get as many mommy and me photos that you can.....you never know when it may be your last. Hug and kiss your babies as much as you can.....you never know when it will be your last. Tell them you love them and try your hardest not to take ANYTHING for granted.

What can a stranger say? You stop by, and are confronted with the worst that can happen to a person, and all you can think of is "geezus that sucks". All you can do is offer your condolences and hope for their eventual healing. Which I do.
