Heaven will mean more to you now- your dearest treasure is there. "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" (Matthew 6:21). He takes from the family here to form a family there. Baby hands are beckoning to you, and a baby voice is calling you home.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of sadness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief.....and unspeakable love.
Washington Irving

Sweet Drew, 3 years since I've had you in my arms. I thought maybe this year would be better but it is late and I know what the night will bring. So much sadness, mommy misses you so much. I feel so unsettled Drew. I keep searching and looking. I always feel like I've lost something. I never find what I'm looking for. I have this nagging feeling all the time that I've forgotten something or that something is missing. It took me a long time Drew but I figured out that what I am always looking for is you. It is you that I need. It is you that I am missing. It is you that I have lost. It is you that I long for.
I wish so much that I could just have a day with you. Just to get your love. Just one day to feel like I have found what I lost. Just one day to kiss you and love you. Just one day to not cry, I cry every day for you Drew. There is not ever a day that mommy doesn't cry for you. I love you and I feel you in my heart always. I'll never forget your giggles and the secrets we shared so late at night, all alone, just me and you. Sharing your paci and hugging so tight. You gave the best hugs Drew Elliot. I can't wait for the day when I can hold you in my arms again.
Give sweet McKenna a kiss, take good care of her. Tell her that mommy loves her.
I love you my sweet angels.
To the moon sweet Drew.........
