Three Months

Wow, I cannot believe three months have gone by since Colton passed. That's an entire business quarter, a season, a stretch of time that I couldn't have imagined three months ago. I look out my office window and the tree is popping out new leaves, signaling spring. It makes me sad to leave winter as there will be no more rain, my little comfort that reminds me of Colton. I am watching the babies that were born at the same time as him grow so fast. I hold them and imagine that this is what Colton would be doing if he was still with us. It is both comforting and sad at the same time. I know that Colton's little brain was so broken that he wouldn't have had a good life but I still want him here. I watch Donny hold other babies and it makes me tear up every time. He is so good with them and loves them, I wish he could hold Colton. I miss you so much my little man.

On another note, Colton's Kangaroo Club will be happy to hear that the gliders arrived! We are scheduled to deliver them to CHOC on Monday, the 23rd. We'll post lots of photos so you can see! Thank you again! The staff at CHOC is really thrilled about this and can't wait to get them. Love to you all!

Amy,
I remember how the photos of you and Donny rocking Colton always made me smile because all of you looked so happy rocking away. Won't it be nice to help give other families those happy moments.
Love,
Anna Mae
