Nine Months

'ris 12.24.09 - 2' photo (c) 2009, Laura Padgett - license: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/Today marks nine months since Erica passed away.  As I reflected back through the months of grieving Erica, the circle of life entered my mind.  Somewhere another family is welcoming a new baby into their lives.  The hopes and dreams for this child were created nine months ago.  While one family experiences the joy and happiness a new baby brings, another family will grieve a loss today.  The circle of life continues on.  Nine months today my sister passed away.
