A letter to my lost sister.

Dear Sheri,
Wow so much has happened in the 9 months you have been gone. I knew when i started this blog that this post was going to happen, and i thought memorial day weekend seemed appropriate.
Your girls are getting so big! They are funny, and beautiful. And every time Ava looks at me i see your giant blue eyes.
There were early mornings i spent with Ava where it was just her and me, and i was SURE you were there. I talked to you both and i hope you heard.
Our extended family is as crazy as ever, and i have had so many days when i was waiting for you to log into messenger so we could talk about it. You were the one who understood, the one who could laugh with me, and the only one i ever felt really WAS my sister. Its lonely for me in this family without you....
I MISS YOU. Probably more then you will ever know. I could cry every day if i let myself. But you will be happy to know that i dont. James and I talk about you so much, and we laugh, and remember. And sometimes we cry and remember.
We went to see your new headstone a few days ago, and are planning to go again tomorrow. Its so beautiful, and im glad its close by so we can go there often.
I hope you hear it when we talk to each other, your husband, and your children about you. And i hope you are there laughing with us when we discuss the latest events in our lives. And see the pictures of you we keep around us to remember you.
I love you sister, and i cant wait to sit and talk with you again someday. Oh my goodness the stories i have to tell you....
