Tears fall today and for a thousand tomorrows

One day one hour at a time a thing impossible to imagine here and now...

There will come a memory of an impish grin on the face of a red-haired charmer in a pink dress or the image of a devilish smile in the green eyes of a seven year old squirming on Santa's lap

Ten thousand more memory pictures will some day in a distant future overflow our hearts and minds and then we will find that we can pause in our grief to celebrate the gift of every single one of our children
