Shakespeare, Stars, And Show & Tell
" And when (s)he shall die, Take (her) and cut (her) out in little stars, And (s)he will make the face of heaven so fine, That all will be in love with night, And pay no worship to the garish sun."
~Romeo & Juliet
Thank you so much to Amanda, Ireland's Momma, for honoring Peyton by writing her name in the stars. And thank you to Mr. Shakespeare, for writing a passage that, though intended to honor a boy named Romeo, has really resonated with me while thinking of my little one. Especially at times like tonight, when I stare up at the heavens missing her, and imagine all the ways her sweet soul is adding beauty to the night sky.
I miss you so much baby girl. Now, more than ever.
What a beautiful way to remember Peyton's shining light.
ReplyDeleteDear Peyton,
ReplyDeleteYou have an amazing, beautiful, loving and infused with God's love mommy...but you already know that don't you!
Kristin...thanks for the comment...have missed reading your blog..and writing on my own. Hospice is consuming but in a good way...Love to see Doing Good In Her Name. Helping others is truly God's love for Peyton shining through you and your husband. We too started a non profit after Emma passed away. It is a humbling beautiful journey. I am forever, forever thankful to God for all the people He has placed into my life...to show me His love.. and through your story, you are one of those people.
Perfect quote for your beautiful girl, and the picture is beautiful.

ReplyDeleteThe anniversary of my mother's death is in 5 days honey. I will be honoring her... I honored her in my blog this week.
I think you are amazing.
Keep moving forward. P is watching down upon you. Some of my followers on my blog have had incredible amount of loss, like you and me... and one is the woman who gave birth to little J, the son we were to adopt.
It is so hard. She and I are tied by the heart for the love of a boy. A boy who lived 36 hours...
It's still hard, years and years later. You are DOING GOOD.
Moving forward.
Keep it going.
Sending you zillions of huge and a universe of love.
The Grey Lady
