My Rainbow

Emil and I chose this song for a track on our Wedding video.

One year later, we decided to use as the song for Naimah's video played at her funeral.

The tears are a constant whenever I hear it. Sometimes I just can't listen to it.

Tomorrow will mark 3 years since Naimah passed away. I love this song. It will always remind me of the love I have for Emil and our daughter.



My wish? That she could be in my arms. My reality? She can't be.
It hurts. So much. Even so, I have comfort knowing she is my rainbow, my dream that I dream of. She is where the clouds are far behind me, where troubles melt like lemon drops. She's that sweet bluebird that I'm waiting for. That sweet rose to bloom. She's happy and safe. So I take my heart to these places. I think of her. Remember her smell, her little toes, her beautiful eyes, and just stay there. It's my "happy" place if you will. And that is what makes my world wonderful. Just knowing that she's not all that far away.

My heart just bursts with love for her. For every bit of her.

I Love You Sister! My heart aches with yours today and I hope you feel your little angel near. I am sure she is constantly watching out for her Mommy and misses you like crazy! She is a lucky little girl to have parents like you who keep her memories and cherish them forever. I LOVE YOU!
