Silly Bo BoHaddie Bo Bo,I no longer go to work everyday, but I have been helping out a few days when I am needed.  I woke up at 6 this morning which is the earliest I have been up since you have been gone.  You waking me up at 6 was the norm for so

Haddie Bo Bo, In the first few weeks after you had past I was living in a fog.  I was under the impression that you went to sleep and just didn't wake up.  This is the furthest thing from the truth.  We slowly started finding out different pieces of information about what happened.  After each

Haddie Bo Bo,I grew up going to the Allegan County Fair.  I loved going and looking at the animals and wishing I was a country girl:)  This past week my friend Jamie and her little girl Izzy asked us if we wanted to go.  We ended up meeting them there on Friday. We took the

Sweet Haddie Sue,Your Mama asked me to write down the story of that one memory you and I made together. Do you remember the one? That one time… I let you fall off my bed? Oh goodness, I still can't think about it without a twinge of guilt. But you were so forgiving, that I

Dear Haddie Bo Bo,A broken heart is the worst, torturous, pain I have ever felt.  Knowing that the pain will always be there and never leave is so daunting.  Summer is slowly slipping away and it has me anxious.  The changing of the season is one of the many events that remind me that this

Haddie Bo BO,Sitting next to my tv is a picture of you.  Elo moved it there today because she kept hitting it with her ball.  So she moved it right next to the tv.  I have been trying to focus on some sort of mind numbing tv show but I can't.  It's been staring at

Haddie Bo Bo,3 months since you have gone has passed.  The feeling is really indescribable.  A friend who has lost a daughter wrote me a note and I felt like it summed up how I was feeling.  This is what he wrote:It's profoundly "amazing" that grief can take three months and make it feel like
