Someone is Missing…

Every day since I lost my little girl Kimberly I wake up with the knowledge….someone is missing

I go through my day and in the back of my mind I hear a whisper….someone is missing

I sit down to dinner with my husband and son, and in the back of my mind I hear a whisper….someone is missing

I wake up and think….there should be a birthday to celebrate today and I hear clearly…. Someone Is Missing

I wake up and think….this is the day my whole world changed and I hear clearly….Someone Is Missing

I wake up and the holiday season is here and I hear loudly…. SOMEONE Is Missing.

I try to get into the holiday spirit and I hear a whisper ….someone is missing

I gather with family to celebrate the holiday season and I look around the room and inside my head I hear screaming….SOMEONE IS MISSING!!

Please understand I enjoy spending time with family but this voice that I hear squeezes my heart….I love each and every one of you but please understand…..Someone Is Missing!

Kimberly, mommy misses you to the moon and back
