21 years ago today...

Today is the 21st anniversary of my Neice, Amber Nicole's, death. She died of crib death when she was 4 weeks old. I cannot believe she has been gone that long. I always wonder what she would have looked like and what she would have become. She was a beautiful baby when she was born. She was so cute and tiny. I called her peanut because she was so little. I don't like to think of this day very much. It was such a difficult time. I will never forget what it was like and I cannot even begin to imagine what it was like for my brother. He was so young to go through something like that.

But, the comfort I get is knowing that I will see Amber again when I get to heaven. I hope that when I get to heaven and see Jesus face to face that he has Amber in His arms like I have dreamed so many times.

I miss you Amber, and I always think about you. You would have been a good Neice and I know you would have brought all of us joy and happiness. I love you.
