We miss her so much. Those precious little hands. I turned to look for her today, to check if she was OK. And she wasn’t there. My heart feels like it had a dose of immunizations. It is so incredibly sad. But it just keeps beating and life just keeps going on.
Goodbye Kiss.
He misses her so badly. Today, especially, he is so sad and wants to be held and cuddled and read to much more than usual. He cries about the tiniest things. 
And stares out the window.
Their hand prints will always be side by side in our hearts…even if Kierra’s are in Heaven.
We got a few smiles out of him today. His cousins came by this morning before leaving for Montana and he laughed hysterically over bubbles.
They sat on his beanbag with him and kept him company.
Because he misses this…
Then Rocky came to play awhile.
And these two lovely ladies drank coffee with me and did pedicures and talked and sat and were so kind.
We survived our first day after the funeral. That is a milestone! Thank you for all of you for your prayers and love and kindness! I slept better last night then I have in a very long time. That is a miracle.
Please pray especially for Kobe. It hurts to see his sad eyes. I know God will help him through this too! Because He LOVES the children!

Prayers and hugs. Even though we only met through a hospital curtain as we comforted our little girls this is still heart wrenching news. I know Kobe will get through this with his loving parents and God to guide him. If there is anything that a stranger can do just let us know were are only about an hour away. For now, we pray.

We have been thinking about you and your family a lot, Anita. We so badly wanted to be there for you on Sunday, but we were there in spirit. May Gods grace see you through this very difficult time. What a feeling of joy Kierra must be having, leaping and praising , and singing around the throne right now. May God Bless you in the coming days and weeks.

Dear Anita..I had to cry with you when i read your blog!!!! My heart hurts with you as i try to imagine how different your life is going to be and i can only imagine how Kobe misses his sister. My two little ones are only 21 months apart and can’t imagine what one would do without the other. But the comforting thot that she now has a completely new body and is in a better place even tho’ the parting is hard …May God’s loving hand continue to comfort your hearts…

I don’t know you, but I read your story about Kierra in “Sip of LIfe” and I am a sister-in-law to Hannah Glick, who I think you might know. I am so sorry for your loss of Kierra. I cannot imagine what it would be like to lose a little daughter after spending so much and yet not near enough time with her. We recently buried our own little girl as the result of a stillbirth. Someone sent us the following link and it really touched my heart and caused the tears to flow and I hope it can bless and comfort you in some small way. May God give you the grace and strength to continue through this dark valley one day at a time.

Anita, this made my heart ache for you!!! I’ve been wondering how Kobe is doing. He misses her so much, and at his age you can only explain things so well. I know all your love and cuddles will help him, though. The picture of him on the bean bag with his cousins compared to being on the bean bag with Kierra broke my heart. I’m praying you feel so much grace…and I can see by your smile that even though this is so very, very hard you do know God’s grace.
