To honor you, I get up everyday and take a breath.
And start another day without you in it.

To honor you, I laugh and love with those who knew your smile
And the way your eyes twinkled with mischief and secret knowledge.

To honor you, I take the time to appreciate everyone I love,
I know now there is no guarantee of days or hours spent in their presence.

To honor you, I listen to music you would have liked,
And sing at the top of my lungs, with the windows rolled down.

To honor you, I take chances, say what I feel, hold nothing back,
Risk making a fool of myself, dance every dance.

You were my light, my heart, my gift of love, from the very highest source.
So everyday, I vow to make a difference, share a smile, live, laugh
and love.

Now I live for us both, so all I do, I do to honor you.

My son loved to take photos of his daughter. He was so in love with her. He often said she was the love of his life. I’m so glad he was able to feel that kind of love. The love of a child and parent is God greatest gift to us. If

your lucky enough for it to be placed in your life you have felt a joy like no other.

My son started competing in tattoo competitions. He was the person you couldnt help adore since he was born. He found his balance in friendship and expressing himself artistically.

Thank You”

The first year I lost my son, there was a song that would come on the radio by Illenium. It was released in 2009. I never heard it before. It would come on at the most appropriate times. I knew . I just knew it was his song to me. I went to a medium after this happened and she said hes sending you the song. Listen.

“You are the only one
You are the only one that kept me alive
You were the only one, the only one that was on my side
You were the only one that kept me alive”

I truly believe the energy of their soul the first year is so strong.
