Missing David

(This song means a lot to me, if you listen closely to the lyrics you will see why the title is Hourglass by Mindy Gledhill)

It's been a little over a week since David has been gone...

I'M REALLY MISSING HIM

I swear I have been in his room so many times just to "arrange" something..it could not be cleaner or more arranged. I think i miss him more this time around than when he first left. I really miss him. The house had been so quiet and boring. Even Leroy says so.

I treasure all our little moments together. If your little ones are still small...treasure every moment of being their hero, their favorite person to show tricks to, read to, dance for, and make happy....
They live to make you smile...they thrive off you telling them how amazing, great, beautiful, talented and strong they are...

An "I love you", wraps them in the love they need to make it in this world.
An "it's ok, we can clean that up" after a mess or accident, gives them the confidence to know a mistake isn't the end of the world...

You can never get time back...
I can never get that little baby back...you will never get each day that slips away back...
Take the hands of your little one, shower them in love, shower them in praise, walk along side them down the paths of their dreams...
play, make believe, imagine, dance, sing...hug and cuddle, don't be in a hurry...
if you hurry up all the time....
you'll hurry into the future and miss out on all these precious moments that you'll never get back...
let the laundry pile up and dance one more dance with your baby in your arms...
you'll always have laundry...but not that baby to hold in your arms...

I am so thankful that my kid knows that I love him, he knows I talk kindly to him, that I won't ever cuss at him, or tease him...that I will always protect his little heart and emotions, I'll always encourage him, he can always trust what I say. He knows he can believe me and they know I will always be understanding and show him God's love...that is forgiving, encouraging, never harsh or cruel, and unconditional.

I am so thankful I had my mom to show me how to be a good, kind, loving mama, that nurtures not just little hearts, but their little dreams, confidence...and always filling them with positivity and love.

If your mom isn't with you anymore or the relationship with your mom isn't very good...please feel the love I'm sending you from my mama heart...don't let anyone tell you you are anything less than amazing and so worthy of love...Love from this mama to you, Nuria
