Beam Me Up

We have one sick little boy at our house. 
In the middle of the night he came down with the flu. 

While we're busy cuddling and watching Cars, I thought I'd share this sweet song that one of you recently shared with me. 

"Hello Ashley. We've never met, but I feel like I know you a little from your blog. Anyway, I heard the new song by Pink called "Beam Me Up" and I thought of you and Preslee immediately.  Apparently she wrote it for a friend who'd lost a child. -- With hugs from a stranger, in a completely unweird, not stalkerish kind of way."

Thank you Maryanne, the song has been playing on repeat all morning.

    OMGosh!!! What a beautiful song! I can't ever comprehend the pain you must feel at losing your daughter. But, I know what it feels to lose someone dear to you. There are so many days when I just want my Mom! Many days! Hugs friend!!!

    What a beautiful song. While I have not experienced the pain of losing a child, I have experiences profound loss. This song can apply there too. Thanks for sharing.

    I heard that a few weeks ago but didn't know the meaning of it. I love P!nk and love the song! Not to try to give you another sad song and you've probably heard this one, but it's so touching. Hearing your story and others like it make me realize that I shouldn't take one moment for granted with my kids. You're so inspiring.

    Thank you for sharing this song. I needed to hear it today. I have been following your story from the beginning never realizing how it was preparing me. My twin girls passed away 6 months ago and I've relied on your blog many times for strength. You and Preslee have changed so many lives, including mine. Thank you.

    This is the song I chose to make a video for Noah as it's 12 months since he passed on Monday. I've been listening to it for weeks - it's beautiful hey :)

    I have fallen in love with this song since she first put it out, also reminds me of losing my child and husband. Pink is so talented and always puts things in perspective for me. Thanks for sharing:)

    Thank you for sharing, What a beautiful song! I can't comprehend the pain you must feel at losing your daughter. But, I know what it feels to lose someone dear to you. There are so many days when I just want my Mom, Dad and my Ryan (killed in Afganastan last December)!

    I am glad this song touched you, as it did me. When I checked back and heard it playing in your playlist, I thought, "Oh good. She didn't think I was being intrusive for sharing it."

Hi, we're the Sullengers! Life turned upside down for us in 2010 when we lost our daughter in an accidental drowning. Since then, we've documented our highs (life with all five of our kids) and our lows (struggles with grief) but amongst everthing we've experienced, we know as long as we hold on to one another we can get through anything that comes our way.
