I can't wait till you stop by again and we get to enjoy them.<br /><br />You know Missy, I had a thought....I wonder if Keegan's response is God's way of letting you know that they haven't forgotten. At the beginning one of my biggest wrestles was with forgetting. I didn't want anyone to forget Lorne. I believe young children will remember in different ways than we do as adults and often we tend to wonder if they will remember at all. I think God was showing you through your precious baby that he will remember his dadddy. We need our children to heal because it would just be too much for them if they didn't but then as they begin to function we wonder if they have forgotten. Us widows go through a lot of contradicting thoughts....poor wording but what I am saying is we want to heal but we don't want to forget and that feels like a contradiction but as we move through it we begin to see that we can heal without forgetting. Remembering with healing takes on a new feeling that is warm and wonderful, still tinges with an ache in our heart because we miss our loved one but not that gut wrenching I can't breathe kinda feeling. God is taking care of your every need and I think He just felt it was time to show you that as your babies heal they will still remember their precious daddy. <br /><br />Love you lots!

I've heard of quilts being made from t-shirts but pillowcases are way better, something to hug. Do you have one too? If Colin used to wear cologne you could spritz the "pillow cases". Smell is a great memory too! I'm so glad you're having a stretch of good days. I will pray for your up coming days with school fast approaching. After the first few days you might really appreciate being able to spend one on one time with Keegan.<br />praying faithfully<br />Michelle IsaakAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737418951740708809.post-86989767772804797652010-08-31T10:51:56.628-07:002010-08-31T10:51:56.628-07:00Give Keegan big hugs from Auntie Dawna...you shoul...Give Keegan big hugs from Auntie Dawna...you should come for a visit soon :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737418951740708809.post-85041336213808888022010-08-31T09:21:25.425-07:002010-08-31T09:21:25.425-07:00The T-shirt pillow cases are a good idea.
