(Photo courtesy of "To Write Their Names in the Sand")My heart was reminded of sweet Helena today as I made some chicken soup, and then I thought of the triplets and how they are doing right now.It crossed my mind that they celebrated another birthday in March without mom and dad. . . and the day slipped right by me.- Madison, Zoe, and Jonathan - I am thinking of and praying for you. Although I

It has been over one year since Helena passed away. Hard to believe really. She was a person who exuded life and love and laughter - and I feel the loss of her in my life.I pray that the kids are well - and that they remember the mom who fought so much to bring them into the world and give them a good life. When they look at one another, I pray that they see mom in each other's eyes,and that

Happy Birthday Helena!You've been on my mind so much lately, and you're still missed so much. I think of you often, and many times throughout the day when something funny that we've talked about crosses my mind ... I often smile when the thought of you and your laughter passes by. Here's three roses for you Helena, one for each of the three little loves of your life. Watercolored roses ...

Back in October of '07, I was talking to Helena late one night about her life with Andrew, and his death. We talked about our ages, having triplets, her struggles and mine. We laughed and wished we could meet. We made imaginary plans to meet in the middle some day. Somewhere between Indiana and Pennsylvania. Somewhere that our kid's would enjoy, and somewhere that they could play. We planned our

Words fail me tonight as I try to express just what Helena and her friendship has meant to me the last few years. Learning of her death today has left me numb and grieving for her three precious treasures who have lost so much so soon in their five years. When Tanya, The Dairy Wife, asked me to be a co-contributor to this blog after she broke the news to me this morning, I knew in my heart that

When I began blogging this past year, your Momma was one of the very first friends I met.Visiting her blog, I felt the very special love she had for each of you, and that love blanketed you with warmth, comfort and happiness. Your Momma didn't just share her love with you. We were all blessed to share a part of that blanket.Shortly after I started posting, I took ill with a virus and she posted

Madison, Zoe and Jonathan,I did not know your mom personally, and we never spoke. However, she touched my life through her blogs. Helena inspired so many people without even knowing it, myself included. She was an amazing woman and an even more amazing mom. I read her blogs on several occasions.She touched me - her words touched me. I was amazed at her strength and her unwavering love she had for
