I miss you Nicholas

Just For Today To my Nick, Nick (I love you more ~moma~)

Just for today I will try to live through the next 24 hours and not expect to get over Nicks death, but instead learn to live with the pain one day at a time.

Just for today I will remember Nicks life not his death, and find the comfort in all of the treasured days and moments we shared.

Just for today I will try to smile no matter how much I hurt on the inside, so that maybe my heart will soften and I will begin to heal.

Just for today I will free myself from my self-inflicted burden of guilt, for in my heart I know if there was anything in this world that I could have done to save Nick from death, I would have done it.

Just for today when my heart feels like breaking I will remember that my grief is the price I pay for loving Nick so completely, and the reason I hurt so much is because I had the privilege of loving so much.

Just for today I will find comfort in knowing that I was always there for Nick, and that I never gave up on him.

Just for today I will forgive family members and friends who looked down at Nick and could not support my commitment to my son. They truly did not understand.
