This is a picture of my Kylie bear and Kamber. Kylie got to spend the most time with Kamber since Kylie went to half day young learners last year. Kylie was the closest in age to Kamber and she loved to play with her. You usually would find Kamber if you found Kylie. Kylie's room was always a mess and Kylie would claim it was because of Kamber, which I am sure she did help to make the mess; but with Kamber gone Kylie's room really hasn't been that much cleaner! Kylie seems to be struggling the most with the loss of Kamber and it breaks my heart. Today my husbands secretary who's name is Amber came to the house. I walked out to the garage to tell Ethan that Amber was here and Kylie was behind me and said " Mommy is Kamber's here?!" Her eyes lit up and she had a look of excitement on her face as if waiting for me to say "Yes! She is right here." Oh how I wish that could have been my response for her. My heart broke once again to have to say " no, not Kamber." I wonder if in the little head of Kylie's that she thinks that Kamber will some day walk through our door and things will be back to normal. Or maybe she holds on the the faith that she will some day see her again, Some day...
Which is the truth, One Day... One Wonderful Day We Will See Kamber Again!

I love that Picture. One Day we will get to see her again. I bet Kylie just can't wait and that is why she said Kamber is here.
My girls were buddies too. Maddie and Mia. Maddie too has struggled with the loss of Mia. All she wanted was a little sister to love and play with. My heart, like yours breaks for the sister who is left alone. She does have her brother, but of course he is a pest most times. About a week before Mia passed away, she was very sick. Maddie asked me what was going to happen to her. I of course said I didn't know. I sometimes wonder if her 8 year old mind knew more than it should have. I wish the best for little Kylie. Tell her Maddie too longs for the day she can play with her little sister again. Hugs today - Love, Nicole - Mia's mom ^i^
When we went quad riding last time and we didn't know where Jaden was I had a glimps of how hysterical and sad Dallas would be without Jaden. He started yelling Jaden's name at the top of his lungs, tears rolling down his cheeks with the horrible thought that his brother could be lost forever. I almost joined him in panic before Jaden popped out of our car. I hadn't really thought of the effect it would have on each of our kids, just how I would be in despare myself if anything were to ever happen to one of them. My heart goes out to you. I sincerely pray for you and your family everyday. We love you guys!
Hey, Jen.
I saw this on someone's blog today, and thought of you. I didn't have your email address so here it is: (to the tune of I am a child of God)
I am a child of God and He has called me home.
My earthly journey's through but still, I do not walk alone.
He leads me, guides me, walks beside me, helps me find the way.
He welcomed me with open arms. I live with Him today.
I am a child of God and I have gone ahead.
My earthly life was brief but oh, such peace and love you gave.
You loved me, held me, stood beside me and though I cannot stay.
You gave me much to help me and I live with Him today.
I am a child of God and I will wait for you.
Celestial glory shall be ours, if you can but endure.
I'll lead you, guide you, walk beside you.
Help you find the way.
I'll welcome you with open arms
One bright Celestial day.

OK, so I'm totally typing through teary eyes today. I have seen Kylie's sad eyes. I will never forget them!! It has to be so confusing to her to try to understand everything. I know what a strength you are to all of your girls!! Keep putting one foot in front of the other, and one day, you will be able to tell Kylie, "Look, Kamber's here!" What a wonderful day that will be!
