It is still so odd to be home for all of these things...to know there is not an ER visit lurking around the corner. As frustrating as it was to spend so many of these moments away from home, it pales in comparison to this...this gaping hole left by our little Tigger this year. So many of our precious memories are wrapped up in the hospital. And days like this, I find myself missing the place and the people who worked so hard to help us make wonderful memories there. And so we try our best to make new memories...but we all feel the longing for the part of us that will always be missing...

what a great pumpkin Nichole. I'm so sorry that so many days are extra painful reminders of the one you are missing so much.
I'm praying for you all.
What an AWSOME PUMPKIN!!! I bet Noah was loving that!
What a cute picture of Noah.All these memories of Noah that we have. I am sure you miss the hospital and CH5 in particular. They were your other family. Praying that God would wrap his love around you. Kailyn and Josh look great. I am sure they had a great time.Thinking of you today...mom
That is a super pumpking! Who is hiding their special pumpkin carving talent at your house?
Hugs as you wade through each day, one step at a time.
That pumkin looked great!
Big hugs for going through another important day without your precious Noah.
Thinking of you everyday. I love signing on and seeing pictures and video of Noah. He still touches my heart every day. Thank you so much for continuing to share your sunny boy with us! My thoughts and prayers with you all!!
Nichole, I love the Tigger pumpkin and that picture of Noah dressed as Tigger is just ADORABLE. I can only imagine how your heart must ache!!! I am soooo very sorry. Noah was a beautiful boy and even though I never met him I feel like I knew him through your journal and I miss him.
I am so happy to see a picture of Kailyn and Josh too. They look so cute in their costumes. I pray for them daily as well. Bless their hearts!!
Hugs!

Hallowe'en came and went on CH5 but please know that all of us had Noah's Tigger costume picture up on our wall. We all miss him very much and often find ourselves laughing about something that Noah used to do or how he would have loved the special events. We also miss you Nichole and your family. Your family has left a deep impression on CH5 that we treasure every day. Even though we don't see you, we think of you lots and hope that life is kind, full of love, and smiles whenever you think of Noah's shennanigans. He continues to brighten our lives on CH5 as we remember all of his special gifts that he has left us.
Thank you Doris for posting. It has been very different for `Granny`as well. Good to hear that CH5 Is still thinkin`about him and the whole family. You all did so much for all of them. we will treasure that for a lifetime. Thank you!!
Thought alot about your family today. Praying for you!
Not only reading your post... but also reading the posts left by your friends here...
all of the people touched by Noah.
I am so sorry that you are in so much pain right now. Noah touched so many lives!
Kailyn and Joshua look great in their costumes! And the dog. How sweet!!
We love you guys. We are praying for you every day.
I miss you sweet Noah. Nichole, I'm praying you find the peace. Peace for your new 'normal'. Peace for your new life. Isn't it interesting how as moms we can adjust so well to the chaos and emotional journey of something like your journey with Noah....and when its all done...we have a hard time going back to the way things were. I get teary eyed every time I come to your blog b/c the wound is so fresh and raw. I'm praying for peace and joy. Joy in your new normal.

Hi Nichole, Brad and family. I've been thinking of you guys. I miss Noah too...He has left a hole in many hearts I'm sure not as deep as yours but still it's dark in there. I love to remember the good times with him and treasure his smile. I would love to see you guys sometime - give me a call! I'll call you if you don't.
