Day 8 - a photo that makes you angry/sad

Like I said it will take me a year to get through this 30 day blog challenge..
Day 8 - a photo that makes you angry/sad. I really have had a hard time with this.  I can not explain to you the mixture of feelings I have with this picture.  Such happiness and such sadness.  All mixed into one.  Is there a name for that?  Yep...grief. It is a harsh painful feeling.  Odd how in grief...death...you can not wish, beg, borrow or steal it away.  It is awful and hard and harsh. I would like to try to remember if I did not love Jackson so much it might now hurt so much.  And I would not give anything for loving my beautiful gift from God...Jackson. 
I swear I will be 90 one day rocking in a wheel chair missing my sweet beautiful nephew.

I love that photo. I think about him often as I hold my son. I am thankful for each precious minute I have. Jackson was so blessed to have so much love.

Amy,
The kind of pain you've endured from losing your precious nephew may never go away. However, you just learn to cope as best you can. So very sorry for your loss. Sending you big hugs!
