Today my daughter comes to me crying because she misses Dad. All I can do is cry with her and we talk some. After she feels better, she runs off to play. And I break down.

You will find the strength, because you are her mother...it’s what we do. You will have your private tears, and that is only to be expected, but you will be a tower of strength to your daughter. She will know that even though her father is gone and she misses him, you will always be there for her and will keep the memory of her father alive for her. She in return will always keep your husband’s memory alive, as a living memorial to the life you created together. The two of you will be fine, it just takes time. You have a bond that cannot be broken.....all three of you, death doesn’t change that.

What did you say to make her feel better? I'm really interested because I'll be having a baby girl soon...

@sweetcharlotte yes, a girl... In late June or early July ?
Try to absorb some of your daughter's sweet energy, hug her a lot. You made her feel better enough to run off and go play. Good going Mom! I've not had to deal with a small child's loss of their parent. I can only imagine how hard it is for you. I know you know it's OK to cry. It helps some, to release the stress and pain. Sending hugs your way.

@Doraz It was my wonderful grand children that kept me going in the weeks after Richard past. Each of the older ones took turns coming to stay with me at night so I wouldn't be alone. It was so comforting to have them with me.
From personal experience I know we are strong for our children but we are still human
