Our Harmony Grace passed away 5 years ago today. This year is a little extra hard because yesterday we lost Pappy Hedgehog (Bs dad). The whole reason we exist is to carry on her legacy to do what she wanted to do. It's the only thing we could find meaning in life for after losing our daughter.
We promised him we would keep the studio "open and going for the kids" so as long as we can keep our doors open we will live on knowing that we have two guardian angels to make proud and will do our best to provide as many opportunities as possible!
Words are hard, but the following poem was written by B and says it all pretty good...
Yesterday I lost the man
who taught me how to stand
Five years ago today
I lost the child who taught me why
Five summers since I held her hand
one night since I held his
time used to move in straight lines
now it circles around what I miss
I look for them in ordinary things
a word he’d say, a light she’d chase
and find them both in the fragile space
between one heartbeat and the next
I am mourning the past
and the present at once
the root of my life
and the branch that broke
If love could keep a body here
I’d never have to feel like this
but love remains, a quiet weight
that time can hold, but never erase
Harmony, my sweet Lil Hedgehog, the only thing bringing my heart peace right now is knowing that you and your Pappy are finally back together again. Let your shenanigans begin again. I love you, Sweetheart. Always.
