On the last May 9th, you took your final breath, and though it's hard to believe it's been a year since you left us, today reminds me of the strength your memory gives me. Every day without you by my side feels like an impossible journey, yet the memories we shared fuel my soul to keep moving forward. I yearn for the chance to hold you close and tell you how much I love you. Your memory will forever be in my heart, a The hardest part of losing a piece of my heart is finding the courage to live without you.
I love you Aaden..

This holiday season will be difficult for me to celebrate, as I am reminded of your love for Christmas and the pleasure of giving you gifts, surrounded by your brothers, who miss you deeply. I will decorate the tree as you desired and thank you for visiting me in my dream. Aaden, you mean the world to me, and I love you so much.

Happy 6th Birthday Aaden in Heaven… This photograph was taken last year at his EPH school. Aaden always looked forward to celebrating his birthday, taking great care in selecting and designing his own birthday cake. In fact, we would often have three birthday cakes in one day, and he delighted in blowing out the candles, even on days that weren't his birthday. Aaden was an exceptionally empathetic and caring child. I feel deeply grateful and honored to be his mother.
I love you and miss you dearly. ❤️

I wish Aaden could be here to enjoy himself with his brothers; however, with your birthday approaching tomorrow, I am overcome with emotion and grief.

Dear Aaden,

As September approaches, I am reminded of your enthusiasm for returning to school and reuniting with your friends. I miss our morning routine, where you would eagerly inspect your lunchbox to ensure I had not included any unwanted items. I also miss our shopping trips to Target, where you would carefully select your new pants and pick out your favorite clothes. I wish you were here to share in the back-to-school experience with your brothers.

September 2nd would have marked the beginning of your kindergarten journey, and September 7th would have been your 6th birthday. The pain of your absence is overwhelming, and I will carry this grief with me for the rest of my life.

I feel your presence daily, and my heart aches with sadness as September approaches.

I love you, Aaden. We miss you dearly.

With love,
Mommy
