Yesterday, I received the worst call a mother can ever get...

My son was spending some time with in my inlaws when he got out of their house and went into their pool.

He was 2, he would have turned 3 on June 9. I am totally beside myself with grief and anger right now....i don't know what to do...

Why did this have to happen? how come we lost our beautiful son? even as we sat and held his body, he was still beautiful...

I miss him so much....

at least i know he's here in spirit, just not in body....omgosh, the pain is soooooo bad

Please please plase watch your babies around water and if you have doors going out to the pool, please put locks hgher up where they cant reach them!!!!

RIP Ryland....June 9 2007 - May 20 2010

Mommy, Daddy, Wes, Em, Alex and 'Baby' all love you and we are going to miss you more then words can say....

  1. I just found you on etsy and read your deeply sad news about your son there. I am so, so, so, so sorry. After I have a "rough" day as a mom, I always ponder the reality of the fact that we are one breath away from losing these little lives we have. I am going to really, really, pray for you. All the emotions, and having to still be a mom to your other children will be so, so challenging. You will have a lot to bear...and bear it you can-one thing, one moment at a time. I will pray that there will be at least one thread of healing for you each day. And that it will continue to heal you little by little. A ray of sunshine hitting your face. The song of a bird. The memory of your son laughing. An old photograph that brings back his baby smell. A favorite outfit of his...crying, weeping, sobbing. Remembering all those wonderful, wonderful times you gave to him during his days here under your wings. I will pray you find God in all of this, and can some day help others who may find themselves in your place.
