It has been one month today since the girls were taken from us... It has almost become surreal. Sometimes we just look at each other and wonder if the last five months really happened. Then we go to visit them, and it becomes all too real.
We took the girls flowers today... Iris'. I think Claire would have loved the delicate petals, and Gracie would have loved the purple and yellow color. It is always so peaceful when we visit; I love watching the butterflies flutter around. Sometimes the pinwheels spin as if the girls are talking with us... at least that's what I like to pretend.
Anyway, we are both back at work in some capacity. Although my body shows-up, I'm not all there. I think David feels the same way. We've definitely been thrown into slow-mo. There just doesn't seem to be a reason to "hurry" around like we used to do.
I had several things that I wanted to write, but I can't seem to do it... maybe next time.

Take your time. We'll all be here when you're ready.
kristy, my heart is breaking for you. you are being so strong, and it is nice that you go to visit the girls frequently. when i try to imagine what you must be going through, i just break down and i realize that i can never come close to understanding the sadness you must feel. please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
