“Henry asked me to remember. I did. And I always will, every day for the rest of my life. Every birthday of hers that comes and goes, I will remember. Every Christmas we celebrate without her, every milestone Wesley reaches that she won’t, every child her age who grows taller, goes to school, graduates, goes on with life, will remind me of how she didn’t get that chance. I will always remember because I have always carried her deep inside me. Even when she wasn’t in my arms, she was in my heart, calling to my soul, granting my mind a mercy for the moment I needed to heal just a bit before the dawn broke, the haze cleared, and I had to face the truth in the daylight.”

“Sometimes forgetting is a mercy, and recalling is a pain too deep to bear.”
