Certain things really helped me these last few months. Aside from my wonderful husband, kind family, and great friends; these things helped to make me less sad.
Daffodil: she is a bunny that my sister helped me pick out. We then went to the craft store and bought a bunch of poly beads. We filled Daffodil up and stuffed some fluff in her to create a weighted doll. Now I hold Daffodil whenever I get sad. Her sweet eyes remind me of Delilah. Her sweet face reminds me of Delilah's energy.
Rutabaga: although I treasure Daffodil, I could not take her everywhere with me. So instead, I have Rutabaga. He stays in my purse and I take him everywhere. When I get sad, I pull him out to hold.
My necklace: my loving coworkers showed up one day aftet Delilah passed away and presented me with a necklace. On one side it reads "Mother to an Angel" the other side reads het name "Delilah Sage" When I get sad, I often find myself touching or rubbing my necklace.
My "Delilah Sage" ring. My husband got me a ring for Christmas when I was pregnant with Delilah. It has her name engraved on the inside. The idea was to wear that instead of my wedding ring so it would not cut her.
All these things are just stuff but when you feel so blue all the time, it's nice to be able to have something that you can hold and makes you fell a little less sad.
