The warm rays amongst the winter clouds


Dear Nicholas

Mom and dad are on our first adventure since you became our guardian angel. We are in the breathtaking mountains of the Drakensberg, sitting below the beautiful blue but cloudy skies, feeling the chill of the winter morning.

It is so amazing here, and like us, I know you would have loved it. I picture you in your little Spider-Man nappy, wearing your Superman outfit. Of course you would get the whole house up with your loud voice, because you would take after me in that regard. You would be grabbing the boules and shouting to daddy, “Dad, let’s play, team Piotis”. I picture you laughing and smiling as you play, just like your dad. I picture you complaining, “Mom, why are we going there to just drink that red stuff”, on our trip to the wine estate. But I know once you are there, you would be running around through the vines and smiling your beautiful smile. I picture your amazing life that you would have had, and I wish everyday that it would have come true.

Now, as I sit at the bottom of a mountain, overlooking a breathtaking view of calm waters, I miss you more than you know.

The skies have opened from a cloudy existence and a ray of sunshine is hitting me on my back, and I know it is your arms hugging me tightly, comforting me and being right here beside me, just like the 8 months before.

It is and will always be such a comfort feeling your presence my baby boy and I will always picture you in your little Spider-Man nappy and Superman outfit running and causing chaos up there in heaven.

Love Mom.
