“It has been said, ‘time heals all wounds.’ I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.” Rose Kennedy
Dear Jake,
I started to write to you on your birthday. I wanted to tell you how much we love and miss you but I just could not write. This year your birthday and your yahrzeit were on the same date. The happiest and the saddest day all in one. Today is the English date that you died. Twelve years ago. I miss you today and every day, even when I can not write to you. I will look for you in my dreams. Love you sweet boy.

A Mourning Mom 
I’ve been thinking of you today my dear friend. I’m not sure how time can go so fast, it’s hard to believe it has been 12 years. I am here, thinking of you and Evan and Jake. And I’m also thinking of Sawyer and Fletcher and Alyssa. I am sending you all much love.

We are thinking of you all. I don’t think Jake would mind that you weren’t able to write. Your never ending love and thoughts of and for him would be enough. Strength and love to you.
