Remembering

We went up to Eastons grave on Memorial Day ( yesterday) Thanks mom and Dad for the flowers and pinwheels, ( Braves & BYU colors) and someone else had left flowers up there as well. It was raining and wet, but it was good to go up there and visit. It's a wierd thing, because even though I never got to " know" Easton, I miss him every day and he lives inside of my heart. He will always be a part of our lives. He is a perfect little son, and I know we will get to see him again. For Ty and I being so young and experiencing the loss of a child it has put some things into perspective for me and I am truly grateful and thankful for all that I have. I feel so blessed that this pregnancy has gone as well it has and I am so excited to meet this little guy! But Easton is and will always be my first child.
I also always think of the soldiers that have given thier lives for our country and our freedoms and for thier families, and all that they go through for us. They are truly amazing people and I want to say thank you to them. Any time I see soldiers coming home on TV or at the airport, I start crying, because I just cannot imagine what that feels like! Any way Happy Memorial Day and to all of you who have lost someone close to your heart, my thoughts go out to you!
