My heartfelt condolences on the anniversary of your so sad
 loss.   Mums anniversary was 26th August so I know to some
 extent what you are all going through.   She was buried 30th
 August 2006 and then on 9th September was my birthday
 and then 18th September would have been her 84th birthday.
 It all happened so fast last year I am sure you know what I mean.
 I did go through agony late at night on her lst anniversary for a
 spell but God got me through it but what was even worse this
 year was her 2nd birthday in heaven, I took it very hard, much
 harder than the first one without her.  I think it is because it has
 been a whole year without her presence.  And it all happened
 so fast last year.   The Sword of Sorrow still pierces often, I
 know.  I am sorry, hang on in there and just holler if you want me.
 You know where I am.  We can get through this, we have proved
 it with the graciousness mercy help and compassion of Our Lord.
 Time will ease the rawness a bit and love will heal all one day
 whether it will be in this life or the next.   
  
 I know it is a bit inappropriate but try to have a happy birthday
 today love despite your trials.  Have a bit of relief I pray for you.
 I am so happy that you are at peace that Jay is at peace with
 Jesus.  I have that same sort of peace knowing my mum and sis
 are in The lord Jesus Presence.  God is good.
  
 big big hugs
  
 your forever friend
