Not sure what to say?

For some reason the post I made on August 23, 2025 was not posted; so, I am posting another one today. Today, August 23, 2025, I feel like today is the end of the year. It was on this day twelve years ago that I lost my little girl and a piece of my heart, neither of which I will ever get back as I live on this earth. Tomorrow will begin another year, though my heart is still broken, for some reason, it seems as if I begin anew. God´s grace and mercy helps me to put one foot in front of...

Happy Birthday, Whitney. It´s hard to believe you´d be 39 today. I can´t help but think about how we would´ve talked and laughed like we always did. I miss those conversations - I miss you. You´re never far from my thoughts. Every time I sit at my desk and turn on the lamp you gave me for Christmas years ago, I think of you. That little light brings me comfort - it´s a quiet reminder of your kindness, your spirit, and the way you always made people feel special. You were such a light in my...

Happy Birthday, sweet Whitney. It is hard to fathom that you would be 49 years old today. Time seems to go by fast, but memories of you remain as if they had occurred just yesterday. I was cleaning a shelf in my closet last week and came upon a small bottle of roll-on cologne that you gave me as a Christmas gift. I remember that you got it for me because you knew I liked that particular fragrance. I could not bring myself to use it after finding it because it had come from one of my favorite...

July 29, 2025, my little girl would have been 39 years old. This would have been her last year in her thirties. Just knowing how much she would have loved this day brings so much sadness and anguish because it is a celebration that will not be realized. We, her remaining family, will gather, but there will be no celebration. It will be a memorial of Whitney and all of the twenty-seven birthdays we were blessed to share with her. Whitney will not be with us in presence, but she will...

Exactly eleven years to the day, Friday, August 23, a day that will live on forever in my memory and continue to rip pieces from my heart, this beautiful soul left this earth and left so many lives void of her presence. Whitney Sheree Wright, oh how your Mommy misses you, everyday, but especially today. While I am glad you are where you are, I selfishly wish you were here, too, spending time with me. No worries, we live to die. Some day when God sees fit, we will be together again, and...

Happy Birthday, beautiful Whitney! First I must apologize for reminding Michelle to send her message early. It must be a symptom of my seasoned mind :). This time of the year is especially difficult for those of us who love you so much, but we know where your soul is, and that brings us comfort. Despite that, I still miss you, especially when I have the privilege of spending time with members of your immediate family. So far that has happened twice this year. We had a good time, but had you...

July 29, 2024...the birthday of the girl with the pretty brown eyes and the big, beautiful smile - my baby girl. Well, okay, you would be considered a woman now, but you will always be my baby girl. What shall we do for this woman who would be celebrating her 38th birthday today? I keep asking myself what would you have planned for today, your favorite day of the year. One thing I know for sure is that we would all be together. So, today the whole family is planning to have dinner...

Happy Birthday, Whitney! It's still hard to fathom and a bit difficult to express how much you are missed. There are still things that happen in life when I think to myself that I cannot wait to tell you, but I take comfort in the fact that you are with me in spirit and sharing those moments. I often think about what you would say and miss seeing your smile. You will forever be in my heart, and I take comfort in that. I hold the memory of the last hug we shared close to me daily. You are...

Well, sweet girl, today is August 23, 2023. It has now been ten years since I have seen your beautiful face, your radiant smile and the glimmer of life in your eyes. My heart has taken me back to that day in 2013, as it often does, and I feel that loss of your love, your hugs, your smiles, and everything that made you uniquely you and in return made me who I was. I unapologetically selfishly hold on to those memories that only belonged to you and me and cherish each precious thought of...
