The 2nd time around, we did more individual things depending on the needs of each of them. There was so much more chaos going on that we just couldn't do a scheduled group. My kids have been through so much, and I admire that they have accomplished what they have anyway. As you see with Hilary, even the littlest ones understand enough to know things are changed, but they aren't always articulate. Even those of us with a grasp on vocabulary don't have the words for this (my attempts with these posts an example). It is a process. I am sure you remember some of that from what you experienced with your sister. Grieving independently is a challenge in itself. Learning to grieve as a family, and within a family where all are grieving differently and trying to learn how to adapt is a new dynamic. It can be trying and overwhelming. A good many prayers have been said on behalf of my children in this process, and I have also offered many prayers for yours.plaidspoliticshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00393586634918991649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678158103626624695.post-9605287031102184252013-06-09T20:02:14.881-07:002013-06-09T20:02:14.881-07:00I think the "moving-on" is the worst. I ...I think the "moving-on" is the worst. I remember laying in bed, just wondering how everyone could continue on when everything was so different, in our lives. I think my heart hurts the most for your kids. I feel fortunate (and sad too) that my kids were not on this earth yet when Lilly and Ryker passed, as I think it makes the hurt ache a bit more when you are considering another's hurt too. Thank-you for still writing Heather. I love reading your words, love the pictures, but I still wish I could take away the hurt. You are amazing, and the day was truly perfect for such a beautiful little girl.

The funeral was beautiful and your talks were so spiritual and moving. I still don't understand how you were able to speak - and do such a good job! May angels continue to watch over you & your family. All of us at L&D are keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers. We love you and think the world of you!Bri & Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380934248320752759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678158103626624695.post-36634832386677349432013-06-09T13:21:54.847-07:002013-06-09T13:21:54.847-07:00I will be one of many that remember Tatum.

You have so many more people to remember Tatum....her whole family will remember her and will be able to feel that same joy you feel with Trevin. I pray for peace in your mind and thoughts...it has to be so hard- I just can't even imagine the pain you are feeling...times two! The funeral was an amazing tribute and I am so thankful we were able to attend. So thankful we got to be there but sad we had to leave. Peace be with you 'til you meet Trevin and Tatum again....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07235054435507372364noreply@blogger.com
