I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that send their thoughts and payers in the last few days. You never know the friendships you have built until something tragic and unexpected happens. I've recieved more emails, calls, txt messages then i could return. For those that called and I didn't have a chance to return the call, I'm sorry but I have been overwelmed. I had intentions of posting a bulliten about Trace, but I see several have been done and I could do no better then the ones I have seen here and I want to thank those of you that have done it. It means so much to me to have him in your thoughts. So I wanted to do something else with this..
A parents worse thought it to have their child pass before them, its not natural. But to have your daughters 2 month old pass is just unthinkable. How to you explain to her it was meant to be, and there was a reason she was only able to have him in her life for such a short time. You can't think of how to console her, confert her and take care of her during this time of pain. But you have arangemtnts that have to be made, things have to be taken care of. But I was unable. I could not think of it or even had any idea where to start. I was to worried about my daughter at this moment.
And then once in a great while you find a special person that you think of as just a friend of your daughters, she shows up at at all hours of the night and day. She gets your daughter in to trouble, just that little girl that you pay no attention to as she has becomes family. The face your use to seeing just as if she was one of yours. This young girl became an angel. She informed me she would handle everything not to worry, and just take care of my daughter.
She disappeared and became a seldom seen face for the next day. She would show up with questions, thoughts, and comfert, and then again was gone. 36 hours later she had done more then I could have done in a week even if I had the strength which I didn't. She arranged the services, the funeral, took care of everything. How can such a young girl know so much of what needed to be done.
The following poam was written and read by her past her own tears at my grandson's service.
=====
Dear Mommy,
When you wonder the meaning of life and love,
know tha I am with you.
Close your eyes and feel me kissing you
in the gentle breeze across your cheek
When you begin to dought that you
shall ever see me again,
quiet your mind and hear me.
I am in the whisper of the heavens,
speaking of your love.
When your lose your identity,
when you question who you are,
and where you are going,
open your heart and see me.
I am the twinkle in the stairs
smiling down upon you lighting
the path for your journey
When you awake each morning
not remembering your dreams,
but feeling content and serene,
know that I am with you filling
your nights thoughts of me.
When you linger in the remnant pain,
wholeness seeing so unfamiliar,
think of me.
Know that I am with you
touching you through shared tears
of a gentle friend easing the pain
As the sunrise illuminates the
desert sky in that breathtaking
brillance awaken your spirit
think of our time togeather
all to brief, but ever brilliant
When you are certain of us togeather,
When you are certain of your destiny,
know that god created that moment
in time just for us.
I am always with you

I later learned she had lost her own child just months before. She was reliving her own nightmare over again. Through her own pain, she knew the pain my daughter was living, and it was her way of helping her. These are true friends. The ones you never think of. I'll never think of her as just another young girl walking through the door, or just another of Kayla's little friends that drop by at times I wish I could be left alone. She's the angel Kayla and I needed at our most tragic moments and I'll love her as a daughter for the rest of my days.
Thank you Ally , I'll never forget what you have done for us.
