Journal Entry for March 28, 2007 Mood
Wednesday, March 28, 2007
Emile's birthday was so hard for me. I filled 22 balloons with helium and messages to him attached and let them go up into the sky. I wanted to take pics but when I opened my boot, they just let go and flew up into the air. It was as if Emile couldn't wait to read my messages. There was a strong wind and they were gone so quickly. I came home and got into bed and slept the whole day. Thanks to everyone who prayed for me on this sad day. Which would have been a happy day in normal times. It is so unbelievable to have a birthday of a child without him there.

    We like to send up balloons with messegas too. It makes us feel so much better.

    It is so hard-but you are right-Emile wanted those balloons right away as a celebration of his life. I know in my heart that it makes Chris sad when we are so sad, especially when the memories were always good-so I just talk to him and tell him how I'm feeling and of course, like all of us Moms do, I always tell him how much I love him. I know Emile, Chris and all our sons and daughters and other loved ones feel that love from us. Glad you got some sleep. God Bless.
