Hey Baby Girl,
I miss and love you and Kid so much. Years have passed, 7 years for you, almost 10 years now for Kid.
My heartache and sense of loss is more than ever. Hasn't lessened at all. I think of you both several times a day, everyday.
I love you Angel, I love you Kid.
All my love forever,

Meemies/Mum

I saw your Mother Laurie a few weeks ago and know she thinks and misses you and your brother everyday. She told me that November 8th was an especially hard day for her. May your memory be a blessing. You are not forgotten.

Baby girl...I miss you so much! I play songs you sent me often. I found a new song. It's perfect for how I'm feeling since you left. It's "Jealous of the Angels" I love you so much. Everyday is full of loss, emptiness and pain. Remember how Paul always said Valentine's day is single awareness day? You both teased me about it. Id give anything to have you both call me.. hear your voices, see you again. Someday we will once again be 3 Musketeers!
I love you baby girl.
