Kyra, I wrote a post once called Guardian Angel. I like to think my stepdad kept my son safe in Iraq. Maybe it's comforting to think your mom has kept your J safe?

You make my heart ache and wonder if we'll ever feel whole again.

I am glad that you are fine. I was worried about you. Thank you for sharing such a personal and beautiful poem. I am sure it would bring comfort to other grieving children. You have expressed feelings that few can. I am sorry that your mom died far too young. Wishing you well in the New Year. I hope that you will find time to keep up your blog now and then.
