sweet warrior princess...

it's been
a hard day
a sad day...
.

...an unexplainable day
the world has lost
another precious
sweet child
so much like our sarah
born with down syndrome
so many of the same
health concerns
tracheal stenosis
a fragile respiratory system
heart and lung defects
but
a fighter
a warrior
a survivor
until today
when infection set in
just too much for her little body
my heart breaks in two
thinking of her dear
mama
and her teenage sister
the rest of her family
broken
crushed
hug your children today
in loving memory

So absolutely heartbreaking. And unfair. And sometimes, the older I get, the less I understand. I guess that is where my faith kicks in. It just has to.

Sweet girl.
