Music on My Heart

There have been a few songs on my heart lately. All are slow, some sad. All remind me of Kierra. Lately it seems harder to think that she is gone. I tried listening to the Beaches soundtrack not too long ago. Big Mistake! I heard Wind Beneath My Wings and lost it. It echoes Kierra and I. She always felt I was the good kid, the one to stand out, I always though it was her. She did so much with her lif. So, this one is for you Kie.
Wind Beneath My Wings by Bette Midler
Ohhhh, oh, oh, oh, ohhh
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine,
that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.
So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth,
of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you,
you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away.
You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you,
the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you,
the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you,
the wind beneath my wings.

funny, you choose this song! This is a song your mom and I picked out for us, as she played it on my voice mail one day when I first started at Wal-mart. I sent her the words to You'll Be In My Heart reminding me of Kie.
But, wind beneath my wings I always thought between us both your mom has done much more then I feel she was the one that I followed. I love her, like my sister. You, and Kie and Chad, are my family. Along now with Hunter and the twins. You picked a great song.
But, for you You are in my Heart also along with Chad.
Love you Girl,
Terry
PS It is hard to believe she is gone I look at my pictures alot that I have of you three being so small and what I have of her when the twins were so little. It is still hard to believe. You have a right to do that.

No matter how many siblings you have, you always think the other one is the best, the favorite.. you both were my babies, as unique and individual and beautiful in your own ways. Her dying does not make her more loved or more special either. Just missed, I know you understand that. Terry Moore and I shared this song, and as a mother I always think of you kids too, all of you trying to live up to my expectations. Which are really just wishes. Wishes that you have a good & happy life. And hoping you make the right choices to help you get there and not have to struggle through life like I did for so long. No matter how hard I tried everything was such a struggle for Kie, and she always felt it all came so easy for you. I don't think it was easier, just different. I am very proud of you, and I love you heart & soul, Mom
