Today was the first day we have been to the cemetery in over two weeks. We felt a desire to go and visit the babe before the snow fell and Peter and Maria were game for a visit too. They love to go to the cemetery because we let them take off their seat belts :)
When we arrived we purchased a wreath to place on Heavy's grave, both for the Christmas season but also so we can find his "place" when the snow is on the ground. ~~Hence the picture above~~
People have been asking me how we are doing. My answer is simple... we are doing really well. We did SO much grieving and processing before Heavy was born, that the after grief has not been a weighty burden. We have found a new rhythm for our family, and are working on taking back our life. Since May Heavy and his well-being was the center of our everyday decisions. We are really enjoying putting some pieces of our life back together. We are also simply enjoying life: each other, the seasons, and our friends. God has richly blessed us.
Thank you friends for so faithfully showing concern for our family and praying for us as we have traveled this road. Please continue to walk with us as we seek to do life with our community.
Much love
