Memorial Day

Today is a day to think of those who have lost their lives for us...it's something Jeff and I really take seriously due to his time in the service and what is going on currently. We thank those who serve and risk it all fo rus!

For me, memorial day is also a time to remember those I've loved and lost. My Grandpa Lacey, the sweetest grandpa you'd ever meet, Grandma Tatman, a smart lady who raised my mom - which is a huge accomplishment because she is wonderful! But mostly I remember Delaney, my little girl who was with us so briefly and fought so hard. We have 5 months of memories of her and I wouldn't trade them for anything. Life is looking up for us, but I do stop and think of her often.

Today I did a page about the flowers that were sent for her service - it was so amazing; people were wonderful.....just look at all the pretty floral arrangements sent! If any of you read this, I still am very grateful for your thoughts at that time! I hope you had a very peaceful, nice day!
