(((HUGS)))
You have been on my heart all day today, and I found myself reading your archives early this morning. My family has dealt with a lot of loss and can relate to your statement “the house is so full, and so empty”. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Oh hon…i hear the pain in your post and i feel so bad. I wish I had some wonderful words of wisdom that took the pain away. In the end I’m just a friend who cares. A friend who will always be here to listen. Much love always…
My heart aches for you. Lots of prayers…..you are loved.
Jess,
I wish I knew what to say. The only comfort I have is that you are always in my prayers. Sending you some extra hugs.

I can’t imagine that feeling of fullness and emptiness. I think about your little Tuesday often. Love and prayers.
what a bittersweet post. i’m still praying.
I’m new to your blog and therefore dont know too much about whats going on…i do know Psalm 34:18..I pray it brings you some comfort.
(((Wrapping my arms tightly around you))) My heart is with you JK. Love you so much always xoxo
Thinking of you.
how i wish i could carry some of your grief, to give you a moments peace…
Thanks for sharing…..your in my thoughts.
Bless you, JK. Think about you TONS.
I continue to pray for you and your family daily as the pain in your heart must be so unbearable without Tuesday. My heart just aches for you and I am asking God to carry you gently. And yes, a full house can be so empty at the same time. I am so sorry. Praying for you.
Love and Hugs, Laurie
Still thinking and praying for you, every day!

when i come here to hear how you are my heart first feels squeezed in a vice, breathing her name and thinking of tuesday. then i see your little people, piper, your boys and i can breathe a bit here. i was talking to my sister today about tuesday, as we played with her little girl. she is still so present in our hearts and minds, as you are.
i joked with my sister that you are a girl we would totally get along with and she agreed when i told her the names of your kids. she thought you were super cool for choosing the names you have, just one of those things that struck her about you. and then we hugged for you.
sending love, always sending love.
So full and so empty….such an appropriate way to express it.
Again, I’m so sorry.
I am so sorry. You are so strong. I don’t know how you do it. I pray for you and your family constantly. Sending hugs from the East Coast.
“Yaahh” was Miss T’s standard reply to questions after she emerged from her 6 weeks in a coma and on a respirator.
A very grateful and sweet spirit!!
My tiny tribute to her beautiful but abbreviated life.

First Foray
MY PRECIOUS TUESDAY
Twins forever; one dearly departed
Uplifting spirits all over the world
Everyone loves your impish smile, each embrace
Silly sisters, singing songs
Dancer divine
Always on my mind
Yearning to hold you; yaahh
How interesting! I’ve been thinking about you today. Are you remembering all the good memories? It is a wonderful picture. Praying for you guys.
I am so sorry…
(((JESS)))
I miss you so much and want so badly to fly out and just hug you…
I LOVE you Jess and I’m here when you need me.
Is it like you lost a limb? And you’re wondering where the hell it went because everything you do feels so unnatural, so unreal… That’s how I felt. I lost a piece of my heart. I lost my baby. And it doesn’t heal quick enough- but it HEALS.
Very comforting words! Praying!

I’m sorry Tuesday isn’t there.
How bittersweet to look at that photo from a year ago today.
I am sorry this is so hard. Sending love and hugs from CA.
please don't ever stop writing. it is a comfort. next week is 3 years since i lost my sister and it doesn't get easier. i feel like it gets worse by the day.
<3
Thinking of you all. Blessings.xx
Those days are hard. But I continue to think and pray for you and your family. The picture of Tuesday is beautiful.
What a “truer” statement, “the house is so full, yet so empty”. Have felt it, understand it, and with time, the memories will help to fill that emptiness and your heart will start to feel “full” again. Take care.
Just wanted to let you know that though I don’t know you, I discovered your blog awhile ago and pray for you and your family often…
I am a child of God and He has called me home.
My earthly journey’s through but still, I do not walk alone.
He leads me, guides me, walks beside me, helps me find the way.
He welcomed me with open arms. I live with Him today.
I am a child of God and I have gone ahead.
My earthly life was brief but oh, such peace and love you gave.
You loved me, held me, stood beside me and though I cannot stay.
You gave me much to help me and I live with Him today.
I am a child of God and I will wait for you.
Celestial glory shall be ours, if you can but endure.
I’ll lead you, guide you, walk beside you.
Help you find the way.
I’ll welcome you with open arms
One bright Celestial day.
I wish we could all take a piece of your pain and do something to lessen yours. As so many have said you are beautiful and strong…. Time does heal. I have cried and grieved for Tuesday and can’t fathom the loss you feel as her mother. Your family and Tuesday are so loved.
how i wish i could do something to help lift you + your family up, to actually support you in this grieving process. prayers.
I have been thinking about you and Tuesday all day today. Love that picture!
xoxo
I know there are no words in this world that will make it better or even bearable at some points in your day. Just know that we think of you often and pray for you more.
My heart is with you and your family always.
Love you sweetie! We’re ALWAYS here if/when you need us.
BIG HUGS beautiful lady.
Much love always.
joy and pain.. some get both in unequal measure. My hope is that you find more joy in each day that helps you carry the pain that doesn’t go away. (((hugs)))
I am just…..sorry !
I dont know what else to say to you !
Massive Hugs !. xx

Wow – those pictures. Your Tuesday was an angel even on this earth….so beautiful.
Jess, I am sending my thoughts, prayers and love your way.
Love you, my friend.
wow….profound words yet again…
know that so many of us think of Tuesday and her family everyday….
much love.
Many wise people have told me that if God brings you to it…then you are stong enough (with his help) to get through it. I can not begin to imagine the pain but I know you and Charley are very strong and the kids are so beautiful you will heal with the help of God and Tuesday. She is always here – we still feel her and know you do as well. We love you…Kris and Wes (Coffee Cabin)
Tuesday has changed my perspective on life, and how I look at my own children. I treasure them. I soak them up. Your words, they inspire me. To live my life instead of go through the motions. Life is for LIVING. Keep your chin up to the sky so your daughter can look down on your beautiful face….and keep LIVING through life.
My heart goes out to you and your beautiful family.
Tamara
Still praying for you every day! Big hugs from IL!
Im sorry Jess that your house isn’t as full as it should be.
((hugs))
I also wanted to tell ya that I was wearing my ‘Tuesday’ shirt and Sammy said to me “mom, did that little girl die?” I said “yes, she did.” Sammy said, “I am sad for them.” I said, “me too!”
Even my 8yr old continues to be touched by Tuesday’s spirit.
What a great picture of your girls.

What an incredibly appropriate quote by The Bo-Deans.
Still so sad about your loss
