This year it will be four years.
- Four years since my Dad turned 70, and I was supposed to go pick up his cake for his surprise party.
- Four years since I was flown from Barron Wisconsin in Mayo one to The Mayo clinic in Rochester Minnesota.
- Four years ago Toby Michael was born at 7:19 p.m.
- Four years since we let Toby die instead of fighting for him to live at 8:25 p.m.
- Four years ago I held in my arms the most perfect baby boy who weighed 1 pound 2 1/2 ounces.
Four years ago
- Four years ago Renee drove 23 hours to get to me at the hospital and stay for those next few days.
- Four years ago, I received a tiny pewter urn with my child's ashes in it
- Four years ago I hugged my sister goodbye, not knowing it would be the last time I ever would.
- Four years ago I started losing my faith
God Speed Little man.
Happy Birthday in Heaven, if there is such a place.
I hope your Auntie Nay is giving you endless horsey rides.
Godspeed-(Sweet Dreams) Performed by the Dixie Chicks. Played at Toby's funeral.

this is heartbreaking. no one should have to bury their child. i'm sure the pain is as real today as it was 4 years ago.
you will be in my prayers.
