lost children

a dark heavy blanket is over us all. today is tyler's last party and tomorrow the funeral. hard to believe that tyler will never again come to the door. never again talk to us about his dreams and hopes. i can't go to the chapel. tyler's last words to me were "you know me, i think of you as a mom."

the kids all gathered here to head up to chapel hill. you can see on their faces that this has had a great impact on their thoughts. our grief is overwhelming. i hate death and the thoughts it brings. we will miss you so very much tyler.
