I went to Levi's grave today, gosh, I hate that word, grave. i talked to him a little differently today and cried harder than I have visiting him in a while.
The weather is cold, snow is on the ground, my surroundings are much like they were when he died last year in march. I remember getting snow again after he died. I was so mad that the snow covered his flowers.
Has it almost been a year already? it hardly feels like it.
Maybe because of the weather or because his first anniverary is coming up I feel quite similar as I did when he first died. The smell of the cold and the white blanket of snow brings back that rock in my gut.
I can't bring him back to me. I still feel like I left him somewhere and I am so ashamed. How could i lose my baby? Where was i when he needed me? How can I have another when I failed levi?
I told him that i had to keep living though i want only to lay down there with him. I just hope that he understands that I have not left him behind.
I wonder if he even remembers me now? I hope that he does because I always remember him.
I told him about his soon to be brother and it was then that the flood gates opened. I secretly wish it was Levi, but I know that there will never be another Levi. I wonder if wishing that sometimes makes me a horrible person. hell, I can't help but want my baby home with me.

omg i\'m crying after reading this. i cant put into words exactly what i\'m thinking or feeling and to be honest, nothing i say is going to take away your pain or bring your baby back. i learned that after losing michael. i\'m so sorry about your baby...how old was he? i felt guilty about getting pregnant again...but i was not tryin to replace him...god i miss him so much. my baby only lived for an hour and 41min ...i think the pain is worse the more time ur get to spend with them and then they are take away :( u know what im trying to say....i could go on and on but my heart hurts for u...
