10 months

A cheery pic...outside!! So glad for warmer weather and a bit of sunshine.

The boys played and played out there...

basketball

and

whiffle ball in the backyard with neighbor kids.

I was thankful for some quiet time to myself.

Yesterday, the 7th

we celebrated Emilie's 2 years AND Annalise's 10 months

Bittersweet.

We are reminded and thankful for ALL our kids

and

God's precious grace poured out.

She wasn't sure she liked the deck...she didn't want to touch it and she didn't crawl anywhere...so not like her...see...

another year...

Missing her today especially.

our Emilie Alyse.

Heard this song this morning at church...so good...i've listened to this album so many times...

healing.

-This is not how it should be, this is not how it could be, but God is in Control!-



Drew asked if we could go get balloons and sing happy birthday at the cemetery.

So we did.

The boys showed Anna her big brother and sister's stones.

Tears.

and

Laughter.

all

Together.

When we walked up I saw 3 big bunches of my favorite flowers...I was so surprised...yep, they WERE at my babies stones.

But Who? How? When?

My Stretcher Bearers!?!

Speechless.

Thanks, friends, for remembering with us today.

It means so much!

We know life goes on...dates just become days...so we are humbled and so grateful that you still show us you remember.

Thanks for loving our family and continuing to pray us through.

You blessed us so much today!
