This was my story. My sister died and I adopted her four children. I would have loved one more conversation. IO wonder if I could have convinced her to fight harder to live, but I recognize that God alone knows the number of our days.

Oh I’m so sorry. What a blessing, though, that you adopted her children–in essence, she passed the baton to you, trusting they’d receive all the love and nurturing they’d need through you ❤ Yes, God alone numbers our days–that can be a huge comfort ❤ Much love to you.

A heartbreaking reminder. We should always tell those we love that we do…until they get sick of hearing it even. If not, those words are the thing we most regret not saying.
