Merry Christmas in heaven my son and daughter. Some days are good some days r sad and some days I smile just thinking about u both. I miss so much all the laughter the funny moments and just being ur mom. I have lost so much but thru it all God has been right here beside me. Idk where I would b without God helping me carry on. Some days sadness takes me over some days smiling makes me happy. It has gotten better. Ppl always say o in time it gets better but it doesn’t u just learn how to deal with it and how to not think about the sadness all the time. I still look at the front door sometimes and remember all the times u walked thru it. I cherish every memory I can remember of u both. I have ur pictures every where. I dont want to forget not 1 memory. It’s very lonely sometimes cuz we don’t get much visitors. I kno it’s hard for Marylynn so I don’t c her much unless I go to her house cuz she don’t want to c all ur pictures I have hanging up and I understand that but for me seeing all ur pictures helps me day by day.when I look up and c y’all smiling it helps me so much cuz there is so much I wish I had of done I wish I had of said. My worst thought is I’m so afraid I’m gonna forget a memory or a smile or something about u so I try to think about all the memories. Some days I can feel y’all around me some days I c and feel all the lil signs u send me. Any day I can smile instead of crying and being sad is a good day for me. This was the 1st Christmas since y’all left us I didn’t cry. I thank God for letting me see dj and Jacey for Christmas it really made my heart happy. Anything to remind me of y’all makes it a good day for me. I’m so greatful for Destany I c u in her so much Crystal. She’s always here checking on us and I’m so glad. Jacey looks so much like u Crystal and DJ is definitely u made over son. I kno son u would b just over the moon with kk kids. So glad DJ and Jacey got to sit at ur memorial garden. It made me so happy they got to come and spend a couple of days with us.1st time they had been here in 3 yrs. Thank u God for answering my prayers and making this a great Christmas.

I haven’t been on here in a while but I’m Remembering my son today… today will be 4 yrs since he has been gone I have told myself for 2 days I’m not gonna b sad today I find myself looking at the front door often when I think of him…he would always come in the door and say mom what u cooking mom cook some breakfast mom imma borrow this n that mom what u watching those three letters I will never hear again from him M O M…I haven’t been able to decorate for Christmas outside cuz that was our thing idk if I will ever b able to again…I was with him that morning my daughter Marylynn Summers and I was talking to him I keep telling myself if I would had just kept him there longer talking to him things might of been different but after 4 yrs I have realized that was Gods plan only God knows y he took him I look at his and his sister pic on the wall every night and say tk u son and daughter for watching over us not a day goes by I don’t think of them both as a mother u always think maybe if I did this maybe if I did that and it makes u so heart broken but I’m so thankful God let us b with him all the yrs he did we have so many memories and if anyone could make u laugh it was him so I’m glad we have those memories some r sad and some makes me smile when I miss them I sit at my memorial garden I made for them it has both thiere ashes there when I get sad thinking of them or hear a certain song that makes me think of them sometimes I get shills all over and I know that’s them saying mom don’t be sad I find a white feather hear n there and I smile I c a red bird at thiere garden and I smile cuz those r lil signs there r here and they will forever be in my heart 💔💔Thank u God for helping me keep getting up and keep going day by day instead of letting me give up there are days I’m really sad and cry for days but you would never kno it cuz I hide my feelings and keep them locked away until I just can’t anymore the hardest thing for a parent is burying her child or children a parent isn’t suppose to outlive thiere children as parents we go thru so much sorrow and grief but we only show it when we have to or can’t hold it in anymore I know we will see them again 1 sweet day so until then I will keep thiere memories alive I will talk about them I will keep thiere pictures hung up I will do whatever I need to to keep going

I just want to give God some praise…. He is the almighty….as a mother when u lose a child it’s hard nothing can compare u for it. I lost 2 4 months apart 3 yrs ago and God knows it’s been really hard at times I cry I smile and I cry and I ask God why why did he take them both and why is it so hard and I have prayed this for 3 yrs. And he has showed me I can help ppl that are grieving by things I make for them I can share my testimony with someone whom has lost a loved one and think they can’t carry on and maybe just maybe they will see yes I can….believe me it’s been several times I think I can’t do it I can’t go on without them but then I hear thiere voices and God saying get up get up get up…and I know my kids wouldn’t want me to be sad so I look at all thiere pic with them smiling and I think wow I am so blessed to have had them as long as I did…everyone grieves differently me I have thiere pic all over to remind me they was happy to remind me I was a great mother to remind me smile b/c they are in heaven with God watching over us all…. Not a lot of ppl visit me b/c they don’t want to see all the pic but pic are memories and after losing a loved one that’s what we have is memories…yes it’s still gonna be hard at times especially on holidays but smile and remember those happy memories ❤️

Today it’s 3 yrs since u left us. Today and the day ur sister passed will forever be the hardest days of my life. I know ur watching over us all guiding us sending us lil signs letting us kno u are near. The hardest thing of burying ur child is all the not knowing. As a mother so much goes thru our minds. This is a memorial garden we made it’s in my yard. Both ur ashes are in with the soil and under the rocks. We’re getting a tumstone made with both ur pic on it. We will decorate this every holiday. The flowers here are real. Sometimes we just need a place to sit and say I miss you!!!!

It’s so hard my son David Halpain and daughter crystal Halpain to carry on without you….I still can’t believe ur both gone my heart still breaks with so much sadness I smile on the outside and say I’m ok but on the inside my heart is in a million pieces I still ask God even after 3 years y how and he has givin me some answers and some answers I may never know it still seems like yesterday to me when I got that call and when I held ur hand for the last time a mothers love ❤️ never stops the love between mother and son and mother and daughter can never ever b broken…until I c u again in heaven 💔
