Today, Lisa would have turned 15 years old. I miss her smiles, I miss her voice, I miss her giggles, I miss her babies. I miss her. I wonder what she would have been like at 15, surely she would have given up her babies. She would be in high school. Would she have played a team sport, been a cheerleader, in karate, take to the field with the band, steal the show on the stage? We will never know. I think about how much pain she must have been in at times yet still managed to smile and make us laugh on most days. I remind myself often that any aches and pains I have or bad days are nothing compared to what she went through. I wish so much to be able to see her, hear her, touch her hug her. I can't. She's gone. Forever. Far too soon. She only celebrated 8 birthdays. Others have joined her and it doesn't lessen the pain. But, it does remind me of the importance of living in the moment and appreciating what I have before it is gone. A video of Lisa to help fill the hole in my heart. Hotdogs and corn on the cob on for dinner to celebrate like she would.
