So true....

Our friend at "Colin's Corner" recently had a great post.  He listed a top 10 of the worst things that can be said (especially to him) to a grieving parent.  It helps to explain some of the feelings I have been having lately with people and their need to help or say something significant to make me feel better.  People need to understand that there is nothing that they can do that will or can make us feel better.  WE ARE GRIEVING!  Please let us grieve in our own way. Like he said, "...sometimes silence is golden."  But this does not mean that you shouldn't acknowledge the fact that we lost our child.  I think that hurts even more, when people pretend like nothing happened.  If I can give anyone a word of advice on how to deal with a grieving parent is just let them be.  Put yourself in there shoes and think on how you would want to be treated in this situation.  I hope and pray that you never have to be.

I'm sorry if this post feels a little negative or confrontational but its just some feeling I have been having lately and I had to let them out.  Thank you all for understanding.  All I can say is GRIEF SUCKS!

And to you my little Munchers, daddy will never let you go and I will be thinking of you everyday, I promise.  I know you understand if daddy is sad, I know your probably sad too!  But we will be sad together as we will be happy together!   And one day we WILL be together again, and I will be able to tell you in person that I love you!!  I can't wait till that day!  Daddy loves you and misses you sooo much Zayana Grace! 

Always and Forever,

Your loving Daddy
