Four long years...............I miss you so very much Cody, please Dear Lord help me find the strength I need. I found this poem and it brings me some comfort. I long to hear your voice, I listen to your voicemail all the time but I ache to hold you and feel your touch and actually hear your sweet voice face to face. This year has been so difficult, Grandma passed away in February, but I'm sure you know that and I believe you had such a wonderful reunion. I long for that day sweet boy, some days the pain is just too much! I love you forever and always! Love, Mom The Cord We are connected, my child and I, by an invisible cord not seen by the eye. It's not like the cord that connected us 'till birth, this cord can't be seen by anyone on earth. This cord does its work, right from the start, it bonds us together, attached at the heart. I know that its there though no one can see, the invisible cord, from my child to me. The strength of this cord, it's hard to describe. it can't be destroyed, it can't be denied. It's stronger than any cord, man could create, it withstands the tests, can hold any weight. And though you are gone, not here with me, the cord is still there, but no one can see. It pulls at my heart, I am bruised....I am sore, but this cord is my lifeline, as never before. I am thankful that God connected this way, a mother and a child, death can't take it away!
