a day to remember

Birthdays are so special and important. We look forward to them every year. On that day we can look back and see how we've grown and how much we've accomplished.

After Scarlett was born, her birthday became so special and important as well and for the first couple of months, we were so optimistic as we saw her slowly growing and saw her accomplishing little things day by day. We were hopeful that we would get to share at least a few birthdays with her.

But sometimes things aren't meant to work out the way you want them to. 

We were lucky and blessed to have her two wonderful months, and for that I am grateful. Today marks one month since she went back to our Heavenly Father.  My heart still longs for her to be here, but I know that she is in a beautiful place where she is free and happy and whole. I love you Scarlett!

happy 3 months


Today has been a hard day. Scarlett would have been 3 months old today. I keep thinking that with each passing day, my heart won't ache so much to have her gone, but that hasn't been the case yet. 

But it is true that with each day that goes by, it is one more day closer to when I'll be able to hold her in my arms again, and that will be the most wonderful day. On that day, I will feel complete joy again.


Happy 3 months my sweet baby. I truly love and miss you more and more each day.
