One Year Ago Today

I can't believe that it's been a whole year since our sweet Bruce was taken from us. He's 2 now... almost 3. I can remember like it was yesterday the feeling I felt when I put him in the carseat one last time and told him goodbye with tears streaming down my face. I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't want to go. That made it even harder.
For days and weeks after, I couldn't say his name or recall a memory without breaking down in tears.
He was such a blessing to our family. We loved him so very much!
I pray all the time that he is happy, healthy and most of all LOVED very much!! We miss him all the time and can now look back with smiles on our faces and remember what wonderful times we had with him. We are so grateful that the Lord put him in our lives to love and take care of. I may not always understand why he had to go... but I try not to focus on that so much.... but more on the love that we had for him and the times we shared.
We love you Bruce and we always will!!
