First "Birthday"



This page could simply be an extension of the gifts for bereaved parents page, but I wanted to somehow keep all of my posts pertaining to 1 Year together.

Luke, I am continually astounded by the amount of love and thoughtfulness of other people. So many people remembered you this week and on the day that marks a year from the day I gave birth to you.

All throughout the weekend  and into this week we have been showered with so much love and kindness shown through thoughtful gifts, messages, emails, notes, packages, flowers, and service beyond what we would have imagined being bestowed upon us.

Thank you to everyone who has remembered us and our son Luke.  

I have debated whether or not to highlight some of the thoughtful things that were done on our behalf. Especially because I don't plan on sharing personal notes, messages, emails, or phone calls, but that doesn't mean that they haven't meant the world to us. How could I share every prayer, tear, or embracing hug? Yet to know we have been thought of, whether it was demonstrated to us or not, continues to touch my heart and sustain me. I am continually humbled by the love and kindness of others.
