Its been more then a month

My dear sweet Precious:

You've been away from us for more then a month now,
its not easier like everyone promised
Even though your little sister is there,
we still miss you so much

Every time the thunder comes, I check the bathtub
Im almost always sure your hiding there, but your not
and your not near my favorite chair
or curled up under the blankets in Kris' bed

I look into the bow window instintively
when I pull up the driveway
looking for your happy face
(and your nose prints all over my window)
I blow the horn still to this day
and wait
but your not there ...anymore

I still slip and call your name
I know you wont come...but I hope
for a moment, sometimes I catch a glimpse of you
in the sunshine under that same window

Precious
I love you
still
yet
and forever

Love
Mama
