Colorful Rainbows

I often think of Logan and Ryder. When I walk into Kainen's room and see their Teddy Bear sitting on the rocking chair or the shadow box up on the wall. When I'm in the living room and happen to look up at the drawing of their most precious feet side by side. When I'm walking in the mall and see a set of twins or even an over sized belly go by. They are on my mind each day whether I notice it or not. Wednesday wasn't the nicest of days and I was really wishing for those gray clouds to go away but on our way home it was just the most beautiful site. Grey skies behind us, bright sun in front, rain following us and slowly fading away as we drove, creating the most WONDERFUL rainbow! First just a hint of one side, then, as we drove, it slowly came out of hiding allowing us to see one end to the other. The kind that makes you want to search for the pot of gold. I couldn't help letting the tears fill up in my eyes. Rainbows, to me, are a sign of Logan and Ryder looking down on me. I miss them so much and can't help wondering what it would have been like. What they would have been like.

I wish I would have known...I would have at least hugged you through the telephone. I love you so much. A mother's only as happy as her saddest child.
