Remembering But Not Obsessing

As soon as Walter and Dennis place the granite bench in the half circle at the bottom of the picture, we will be done with the memorial for this year.

 
Next year, we will find a way to mark the trees for each of our babies. We are also going to put a raised bed flower garden between them. That is why the surrounding mulch has a straight edge. We don't normally maintain the grass very well in this part of our back yard but we will be starting next year. Hopefully, the grass will get better looking next summer.


  
Please, everyone cross your fingers and/or prayer that the weather is good on October 31 because I plan on spending a lot of time out there that day. I can't imagine doing anything else on the day that my first child should have been born. I just want to be with them and being out there in our memorial to them is the closest thing I'll get to being with them.
