I now am beginning to hear the words of Nora's siblings tell her story, share her person to the world.
"Raise your hand if you have a sister?" their preschool teacher will ask. I hear their voices clear and true sitting in that circle singing, "I do."
We are not afraid to share this weave in our family fabric. Nora is not on earth, but she is everywhere. Nora's life cycle was shorter than what the family wanted but we are lucky to call her daughter, sister, grandchild, niece.
Her siblings will know the meaning and celebration of life on such a deep and loving level because we will not be afraid to remember.
