I haven't been on here in quite a few months. I believe it was Logan's first birthday in November was the last day. I haven't been able to post anything since then. It was so emotionally exhausting that I had to take a break from the thought of it all. My emotions have still been so up and down. The first year of his death, my body was grieving and on this second year I think it's more my mind that's grieving. The bad days are further in between but when they are bad, they're really bad. I will get back to his first birthday and what we did but I want to talk about the March of Dimes walk we are participating in for him on April 20th. We met other grieving parents in this tragedy and have joined in on a team for my friend's daughter, Naya, who started this team last year. I can't wait to walk in memory of our babies. When your child dies, you don't get to hear their name much. This gives us an opportunity to celebrate him. Celebrate his short life. See his name on a shirt. Feel his presence. He was here. He was alive. We don't get to sell candy bars for his football team, or send around magazine sales for his elementary school class. This is it. But, what better way to celebrate him. We will be raising as much money as we can to help other babies that are struggling or will be in the future. The March of Dimes helps give babies a healthy start! Here is my link if you would like to help support this walk or spread the word to anyone you think may be interested:
