Words are inadequate for such a situation.....I still think of Jessica as a little one I enjoyed seeing when I visited my mom in Des Moines. May the Spirit fill you with peace that surpasses all understanding as you walk through this intense grieving period.....and learn to find a new 'normal'.......until you meet her again in full eternal glory.
