Locket that holds Kenneth's picture. |
Today is the eight year anniversary of our son Kenneth David's stillbirth. I cannot believe it has been 8 years already. Sometimes I try and imagine what he would look like as an eight year old little boy, but all I ever see is the sweet little baby. Chubby cheeks, and big pouty lips like his little sister.
We made a little visit to his grave yesterday. We had been invited down to Jared and Amber's house to celebrate Emry's 12th birthday so the timing was perfect. We took some flowers and spent a few minutes remembering our sweet boy. These times are important to our children as well. I want them to feel like Kenneth is a part of our family and we will be together again someday.

I feel like my heart has healed a lot this last year. I am so grateful I get to be Kenneth's mom. I know it has made me a more compassionate person, it has made me a more patient mom (most of the time), and it has strengthened my faith. Til we meet again sweet boy. Momma loves you.
