We prayed for a miracle which God granted in heaven. Daily we walk the path of grief, ever leaning on Jesus for our comfort. Until we meet again Millie, always remember you are forever loved and missed!

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐃𝐮𝐜𝐤


I saw a yellow duck today,
thrown aside in child’s play.
I saw it as I crossed the yard,
emotions rose so fast and hard.
It was the duck of a little girl,
whose head was filled with golden curls.
It used to float within her bath,
but was long forgotten in the aftermath.
No longer needed her duck stayed behind,
she went to heaven, and he slipped my mind.
I saw her yellow duck today,
no longer used for child’s play.





Little man took the basket of bathtub toys outside to the wading pool. He left it lying on the patio and as I passed by that duck caught my eye. I remember where that duck came from. I can picture the duck’s sweet owner as she was given a small toy that brought her great joy. It had been so long since I have given her a bath in the tub. When her cancer diagnosis came, tub baths were out of the question. From June 2019 on, every bath was given in our kitchen sink where the water was kept to just a few inches and her Broviac could be protected.
This is the face of grief. These are the moments that flood the mind with joy, sorrow, longing, and regret.
Blessings sweet friends…
