My Conversation with Trent's 6 almost 7 year old Neice.




I'm a Mom, yes I think your average typical Mom.. Everyday when she pops herself into the car I always ask her the question!
Me: "Danica how was your day today"
Danica: "Fine"
Me: "Just fine", nothing else exciting to report?
Danica: "nope"
Me: Hmmmm!
Me: So, who did you play with at School today.. I am then thinking in my head: Aubrey, Saskia, Sarah etc. You get the point..
Danica: "Trent"
Me: Oh! Trent who, is he a knew kid at School?
Danica: Duh Mom, "Our Trent", your brother duh.
Me: Ok, sitting there in silence (with tears), my emotions are still not in check... So, what were you and Trent doing?
Danica: We were playing Tag, chasing each other- she said "Mom", he can sure run fast.. we also climbed the fire pole monkey bars- it was sure cold.
Me: Oh! (I try not to fee too much because I really believe her, I think when you feed into it it is no longer real).
Me: So, were any of your friends playing with you and Trent.
Danica: Nope, just me and Trent; I was crying in class today and then Trent whispered it was ok to meet him out at recess..
"Mom", I'm really missing him really..
Me: (yep) I am a cry baby but gosh dang it, this sucks.. I said to her as well, "Danica" I miss him too and I am glad your able to still play and talk with him- Your a very lucky girl.
Danica: Mom, Trent misses you and all of the Family, he is good though and he likes it where he is; He plays with Ashton a lot.. (I lost Ashton at 24 weeks pregnant, he would have been 5).

Then I just sat there driving.. I had to hurry and come post this because it is SO important to me. I did look back in the rear view mirror and saw tears in Danica's eye's, the mirror went back up- I have to be STRONG.
Love you T.

Here Kitty, Kitty!




This is Kitty, the kids like to call him Nacho. My Mom found him back in 1997 when my brother Jeremy went on a mission- he has been in there home ever since. I loved cats, I grew up with cat's... Shawn won't let us have a cat... Grrr! Anyways, I get to spend Monday/Wednesday/Thursday with kitty- while Bryhn is at school. I feel sad for Kitty like I feel sad for myself- we have something in common! Were both missing Trent.. I miss Trent and I know the cat does. I often see him walking around like what the heck? I often find myself doing the same thing. I don't go a day without crying, my eye's hurt, my heart hurts and my kids hurt. I find myself comforting my children because there hearts are broken as well. If you have NEVER had the experience to love someone disabled you better get on it.. They are so amazing and my life has forever changed.. Back to kitty-I had to take a picture of him sleeping and being a cute kitty.. Him and Trent LOVED to fight one another. Kitty were here for ya.. Trent! Kitty is being taken care of, he has done some odd things that he has never done before- Trent, you must be by him when he is doing it... Only YOU would do some of the things he does. I miss you brother.. I hate typing anything about you because it ends up with me in tears, that said. M-E-O-W- (T).

Flashback Friday- WELCOME OCTOBER!!!!



BOO!!!
I decided to do a post of different Halloween pictures of Trent, he was always the looker at Halloween and as any other day, Trent was such a darling kid.. We miss him SO bad and words will never describe our loss. My Mom sure did an amazing job with his Halloween costumes: below he was a bumblebee, ninja, Pinocchio,
Zombie... He was always so much fun and loved to hear everyone tell him how great he looked.
We miss you Pooks, SO SO SO much.
