Kaitlyn Louise

Kaitlyn was always an angel now she has the wings to prove it!
July 20,2000 to March 24,2002

"The mention of my child's name,
May bring tears to my eyes,
But never fails to bring
Music to my ears.

If you are really my friend,
Let me hear the music of her name.
It soothes my broken heart
And sings to my soul."

Well, we got married. We just eloped. We had 2 witnesses with us and that was it. We didn't want some big to-do. It was simple quick and no stress. I married the man of my dreams and will now spend the rest of my life with him. He is everything I have ever dreamed of in a husband, friend, and dad. He loves our kids and me and shows us just how much every single day. I just wish that Kaitlyn could ahve known him and he could have known her. I see so much of her though in her baby sister. The determination is in Gabriella's face as much as it was in Kaitlyn's. Paige is still struggling with Kaitlyn's death. Every few months of so she has another mini breakdown. We had one yesterday, where Paige heard one of the songs from Kaitlyn's funeral right after she found the doll that was Kaitlyn's and she cried for awhile after that. She misses her so much and feels guilty that she doesn't remember more about her. No matter how many times I tell her that it's okay because she was so little when it happened, she still doesn't listen to me. She talks about Kaitlyn a lot to people still. I miss her just as much as Paige does, every single day. It will be 7 years since she died next month. I can't believe it's been that long. Then again I can't believe it hasn't been longer some days as well. Having Gabriella has caused me to have less alone time to think about things like that, but Kaitlyn is always there in the back of my mind and in my heart. She was and will forever be my sweet little girl. Later this year Gabriella will be older than her big sister. That will be hard for me I think. Up until 8 months it was hard because that was when Kaitlyn was diagnosed. Every little bump had me freaking out. But she is fine. She is a big girl though. So much bigger than my other 2 girls. She will be one in about 1 week and is already bigger than Kaitlyn ever got. She has outweighed Kaitlyn's high weight since she was 6 months old. She is half Paige's current weight and there is a 9 year age gap. Paige is my "little" girl though and Gabriella is my "big" girl!!!

Hope all is well with everyone out there and thank you for still checking in.
