Oh my. It’s amazing the small morsels of comfort we are given just when we need them. It eases the absolute sharpness of the ache, even if it doesn’t ease the ache. Warm thoughts of you and for you.

Sheye, I live in the UK and check your blog everyday. More often than not when I read one of your posts I get a real big lump in my throat-which isn’t helpful to you at all-but the way you write about your love of Ava just takes my breath away. I am lucky enough to know a love like the one you talk of and you manage to put into words what me and most can’t quite express. And you are a truly talented photographer. I am travelling to Brisbane in a few days and looking forward to checking out the cupcake place you once spoke of-thank you, for more than you know. Nicola

Tears…
Sometimes it seems that I can’t find the right or fitting thing to say. It’s at those times I share tears with you Sheye.

Thoughts always,
Krysta

i have read your blog for months, feeling the sadness of your loss. i am a mother. the previous comment is somehting i truly believe too. my great grandmother lost her sweet baby grace at the tender age of 2. the message of families being together forever is indeed what i believe with all of my heart. this message was brought to my great grandmother after the passing of her sweet baby in the town of perth, australia over 60 years ago. it has affected countless members of her posterity. they have embraced these beliefs and found the happiness of forever. i would love to help if this is something that touches you……my heart and prayers are with you and your sweet family!

Sheye,

I know where Ava is and she can be yours FOREVER. I know it in my heart. There is a simple, beautiful plan and it is true. We all knew it and agreed to it before we came to this earth. You’ll recognize it if you hear it again. I promise. If you ever want to really know, just ask…

You are a beautiful mother and inspire me to focus on that which is most important.

Thank you for sharing with us! Hugs to you…

Wow how special for Aria, I love that those sisters found have such deep roots.
Beauty full.

exactly like everyone has said, she is right there with you. everyday.i truly believe that. i can only imagine how frustrating it must be though to try and sense her when you can’t see her.
you have friends from all over sheye who care so deeply for you and your family. friends you’ll never meet, just know we cry with you too. i wish you could have her back for just one day. -tara

you always touch my heart with your words. i am glad you can see her everywhere, even though it hurts, it’s better to be able to know she is there with you, watching over you….hugs.

This is a first time commenting for me but I feel like I know you personally. I have read and been so touched by your story. I do not have children but have experienced the sudden lost of a loved one to a motor vehicle accident. It has been over three years and I still find that I try and find her. You can find just about anything you want on the internet, and I’ve looked for her there. We try to feel the void and heartache that we feel anyway that we can. I do agree with the other commentors though that she is always with you, I truly believe that. I hope that you can always find Ava in the clouds and I know that it will be at the most random times that she will suddenly feel right next to you and those times are so amazing.

hugs to you, Sheye!! She is with you every morning you wake, every breath you take and every nap you close your eyes. She lives in you, loves in you…
all my best to your dear family.
