Thanks for your thoughts. There is a poem that means a lot to me, Footprints on your Heart. Some people come into our lives and leave footprints on our harts and we are never ever the same.

I had 40 years with my daughter, the last 5 she lived with me so have lots of memories. I also know I will see her in Heaven one day. Military families who have lost their young ones in a far off land didn’t have this chance. My heart grieves for them and I offer up prayers on their behalf. They are the true warriors.

My cousin, that I grew up with, was killed about 30 years ago and while I didn't outwardly grieve for years, it still probably took me about 25 years to actually, "get over it".

God bless you and you will see your daughter again someday.
