On special Ava days, like today, I wake up wondering — almost anxious — if I will see signs from her. I am amazed at how strong our bond is even though I can count on one hand how many times I got to hold her in my arms.

Tonight, I am thankful for 3 special cards I received today. Tonight, we remember Ava, leaving us for her eternal life 3 years ago.

My Aunt Lori sent a sweet birthday card that arrived early — even with the icy weather we’ve had it got here overnight. I received an acknowledgement card today from a special friend’s parents. I’ve only met them once but they placed a poinsettia in their church sanctuary in loving memory of JT, Jr. My third card is from Todd. JT, Sr. He’s not a card giver but when I woke up from my nap there was a card addressed to ‘My Love’. It brought me to tears.

3 unexpected cards on her 3 year angelversary.

I love you, too, Sweet Ava. Fly high, my angel.
