Dear Emmer,
I'm not sure where blythewood is. I do believe I've heard of winnsborro before though. I have some family scattered all over south carolina and some in north carolina. My family is pretty spread out. Some live in Kansas and some in Texas and some in Connecticut. We're all very scattered out.
I have a question for you, simply because I'm wondering. What religion are you a part of?
"Inuyasha". I believe I've heard of that show before. The little girl that I used to babysit loves japamation.
That was very sweet of you to make that video for her father's birthday. Now you'll always be able to see her and hear her voice. I don't think it's crazy for you to think she could have subconsiously known. I believe many people know when their time is coming to leave.
It brought tears to my eyes when I read about your valentine's day. But then again, a lot of this has brought tears to my eyes.
My father 2 weeks before she died took Emily to the dollar store a couple of stores down from Walmart in Winnsborro South Carolina. I was getting a couple of T-shirts at Catco. He told her, "you can get anything you want" she wanted those plastic Roses they sold there for 99 cents. She came running into catco (all you see is the clothes swaying side to side as she made her way through to me) with the Roses held up high, saying, "mommy mommy! Look what I bought for YOU!" It was so like her to think of me over herself, I was so touched, moreso after she died because the Roses follow (as I also wrote on her on line memorial page).
That is so sweet!! Some children seem more like angels than children. I would appreciate it if you could send me a link to her on line memorial page (if it is open to the public).
Freinds of mine on another forum Carol and Scheryl sent me handpainted gifts all with Red Roses and a "surprise" for my daughter, they arrived the day after Emily passed. Inside the gift they sent for my daughter was handmade Angel, I just cried.
It makes perfect sense that the gift to her would be an angel.
I believe I'll have to look for this cd that you're talking about. You know, music has always been a big part of my life, and I've come to realize that it can be very helpful to get us through hard times.
I felt I saw heaven wrapped in a blanket, and I can't wait to hold her in my arms again.
I know you can't. I'm sure she can't wait to see you either!! I can't read any of this without tearing up. To only have lived six years, she left behind a beautiful story and a beautiful impression.
Roses are on of my favorite flowers, too. I've always loved them.
If you ever just need to talk about her or about how you're feeling, I'm here to listen.
*gentle hugs*
Love,
Element
BTW, I hope I quoted all of this correctly so it won't be confusing.
