Well it’s the 21st of November and for the rest of my days on this world this date will be tough for me. It’s the day Hayden crossed over and I miss him terribly. Five years, so hard to believe. I was touched beyond words when my beloved Florida Tribe dedicated today to Hayden and the other warriors who have crossed over. Their words touched me to the point of tears and my love and respect for them runs so deep.
Today we left from the front door as the motorhome was blocking the garage. We have two large lions in front of the gates and the one on the left had a pink construction paper heart taped to it. With the wind blowing and the way the heart was taped the sides of the heart flapped and it strongly resembled a butterfly. Lincoln found it and he and Sierra quizzed why someone would put that there. “It’s someone who knows we are having a rough day today.” “Why?” they asked. “Because this is the day Hayden died guys and someone wants us to know they are thinking of us today,” I say. Lincoln, in a way only Lincoln can, quietly tapes the pink heart back to the lion and says “I think it was Hayden who put it there to let us know he was thinking of us today.”
Let me just say I had to put my sunglasses on .. and there wasn’t any sun out this morning.
I miss you Hayden. I’m glad you’re safe and in a good place, but I never thought I’d have to do this world without you. Mom
