The SIDS Walk

Hey Babygirl,
Wanted to send a a quick note to you, to let you know what we have been up to. Well this past Sunday Sept. 14th, mommy, daddy, Madelyn-Jo, Noah, and about 50 other friends and family took part in a SIDS walk in honor of you, pretty. The walk was sponsored by the CJ foundation for SIDS & WAWA. In case you weren't aware, WAWA is Noah's favorite store. It was a very hard day for Mommy but it was also so incredible that so many people turned out to remember you!!! The 50 + people were not even half of the people that wanted to attend and couldn't. They were all gracious enough to give wonderful donations. It is just amazing to mommy and daddy to see how many peoples lives you touched in just your short 4 1/2 months. We all love you sooo much Reese. We will continue to do things to raise money to try and find a cure for SIDS and Remember You. I love you Reesie!!! Love, Mommy

You are 10 months old today

Hey Reesie Cup,

Today is Sept 8th and you are 10 months old today. You have been gone for almost 6 months now and it is still totally surreal to us. I still think this couldn't have happened to us. Every day I wake up and hope that it is all a dream, but I know this is something we have to deal with for the rest of our lives. I just keep imagining you at 10 months and how you would be getting around and hanging out with your big sister and big brother. They both miss you so much as we all do, especially mommy & me. I am speechless really, and don't know if I will ever find the words to describe what your loss means to our family. It is really such an empty feeling; I don't think words could ever describe it. I feel like since you left us on that dreadful day in March, our lives have been moving in slow motion, but everyone else's is fast forward as usual. I guess it is something we will have to cope with. When? Who knows. I miss you so much and we visit you at the cemetary all the time. I know you are probably best buds with all the little kids at the cemetary and that helps me get by. CHOP is having a memorial service for all the little kids who have left way too soon on Sept 20th. Me, Mommy, Noah, Maddy, Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop and Mom-Mom Goz will be there. It will definitely be hard but at the same time will be good to memorialize you. We are also doing a SIDS walk this Saturday to raise money to help put an end to this mystery. We will never, ever forget you sweetie. You are, and always will be my little Reesie Cup. I hope you visit me in my dreams soon and let me know that you are okay. I love you princess! --Love, Daddy--
