seven months…

It’s been seven months since Courtney took her last breath. 


Where has the time gone? 


The days fly by so fast. I feel like I am trying to gather leaves in the fall as the wind blows them from the trees. Running, jumping, lunging to grab that moment in time before it’s forever gone. 


I thought about Courtney all day today. 


Not a tear has fallen. I have felt such a peace today. I smiled and talked about her with friends and family. There were Courtney stories shared all day. Our spicy little number left behind quite a legacy of laughter and joy. 


I can’t help but feel happiness when I think of my daughter. I know the tears will come, grieving takes time. But for this day, the seven moth anniversary of Courtney’s death, there was joy.


I love you girly. I miss your face. I know you are experiencing nothing but joy and the eternal love of Jesus. I am so happy to know where you are, that your safe, loved and no longer feeling pain or fear. 


Until we meet again my love…run, sing, dance and praise your Beloved Lord.
