I took a self-imposed time out after the verdict but I am back today to see how HHJBP treats her in regards to sentencing.
I couldn't sleep Tuesday night thinking about the injustice of it all and I found a few thoughts comforting...
What can **I** personally glean from Caylee's death so that in some very small way her death was not in vain.
I would give my life for my own daughter and love her with every fiber of my being, but I hug her a little tighter and kiss her a little more often because of Caylee. I don't take for granted ANYTHING with my daughter, even the poopy diapers while she is rolling around on the changing table and getting poop everywhere! I just chuckle and remember that life is fleeting and holding on to every last moment, trying or joyous, is what it is all about.
I also thought about the way the WS'ers bonded together, challenged each other, supported each other and ultimately felt completely betrayed by this trial. It is amazing how a group of people in cyberspace can come together for a little angel we never met. The outpouring of anger and frustration at the verdict tells me that I should NOT lose faith in humanity.
My last thought was that the SA's office sent a VERY clear message to the residents in their jurisdiction - if you harm a child we will spare no expense, seek out any and EVERY resource available to us in order to bring justice to those who can no longer speak for themselves.
I did nod off Tuesday night but not before I stood in my daughter's doorway and watched her sleep for a while then snuck in a few kisses - and one was for Caylee....
