Ok..Here is the scoop on the box..It is by know means a funny story or a humorous one...But I will tell you anyway..Only because you are the best folks out there..LOL
I keep some , what you might call, mementos in this box..Nothing fancy, nothing frilly, just stuff...Maybe it is a form of torturing myself..Not sure..But this is the only day I look at it..August 17..This very day..Although I have not opened it today, maybe I wont..Maybe just knowing it is there if I ever want to is good enough..Maybe I have move past it..
Today August 17th would have been the 6th birthday of a spawn. And yes I am sure this one would of been a bad spawn too..LOL..Seems to be the only ones I make..heehee
So in this box are items..Little things..Hospital bracelets, cards, and other odds and ends...Not a big box, so not a lot of stuff fits in there..But that is the way I want it...
There you have it..The story of my box..Not a pleasant one..But a story none the less;)
So now I will end on a funny note..I told the two older spawns to clean their rooms today...To which this conversation proceeded..
OS: " why, why, why cant you just let me be a kid, why am I always having to do work?"
ME:" well you are being a kid..And kids keep messy rooms..And yours needs to be cleaned a bit..So please do it."
OS:" well I wish that people in this house would show me respect and loved me."
ME: " everyone in this house loves you..Go clean your room"
OS: " I wish I could be adopted into a family where the mom and dad loves their kids and doesn't make them clean anything"
ME: " well when you find them, I would love to see what the house looks like"
OS: " I bet they live in a mansion."
ME: " ok. I will help you pack."
enjoy..Toodles

Thank you for sharing that. That is a special thing to keep--feel free to take a look when and if you need to. Thanks for sharing also the conversation with the kids--they are so funny and sweet. :) Take care. And, talk to you later.
Sorry Aug 17th is a bad day for you - D is right - you never forget, and it's okay not to forget.
Kids - have you been listening to my conversations with BIG GUY - I think I'll send him your way - you handle it so much better... lol

Here it is Aug. 21 and I'm finally reading this post about the contents of your special box.
How very sad. Your loss had to have been terribly painful, and probably still is, especially on Aug. 17th.
I don't think you have to move past it at all, I think time helps us deal with loss, but there's forever a missing piece in our hearts for our loved ones who die before us.
I'm so happy you have three children making your life wonderful and interesting every day, but I wish with all my heart that you had not lost that one, sweet spawn.
