Nancy,
I will light a candle for your sweet baby girl tomorrow.
Autumn's birthday was March 26, the second one since losing her also. I agree with you, it's gotten harder.
Just know all of us are with you in spirit and are sending hugs.
Terri

Hi Nancy,
I haven't seen you on here forever and was just wondering how you were doing?
I don't always comment, but I do check in frequently.
I hope you're doing okay and you've been able to have some "good days".
Hugs.

Linda said… - It does kinda leave you with that feeling that you did give your child, no matter what age, Jennie turned 33 and still loved Pooh, something for their birthday. Hard to explain that feeling.....hugs...Linda, Jennifer's mom

- Nancy, that is what I have done on my daughter, Jennifer's birthday. This year was the 3rd one without her. She loved Winnie the Pooh (even had a tattoo of him on the inside of her wrist, as mom, I didn't like it at first), so I would find the biggest birthday Winnie the Pooh balloon and a blue one and a yellow one that said Happy Birthday on them, we both liked the color blue and she loved sunflowers. I just did this for the third time last Friday, the 25th. I have gone to places I know she has been and loved and let them go, then stand and watch until I can't see them anymore. My sister went with me this year and she had gotten her own Winnie the Pooh balloons, when they disappeared suddenly my sister had asked where did they go. I told her Jennie grabbed them. She was in awe. It is something I will do on every birthday because it makes me feel like I am still giving her something. I do rather do it by myself but really didn't have that option this time with my sister. I know it was good for her, but it is something I just feel is between Jennie and me. Sounds stupid or crazy but that is how I feel. I hope you enjoy releasing your balloons to your precious daughter.....she will get them. Many hugs to you....Linda, Jennifer's Mom
