Today you would be 5 years old! I would have come in and woken you up this morning and sang to you, made you a cake, and thrown you a party. Your birthday is always a sad day in my life but I am so grateful for you angel. In this picture you are being held by Maddy who was 5 at the time. You no longer would fit in your tiny little green dress, but you would be wearing Maddy's green dress now. To think that you would be that big blows me away. You would be starting Kindergarten this fall. It is the "would be's" that are hard. To look at my other kids and have all those wonderful memories just makes me feel jipped! I KNOW I will see you again and I will get that chance, I just miss you today. This picture was taken about 30 minutes before you passed away. Everyday I get through the pain just fine because I don't let myself really go there. On your birthday, I let it all in, and it is still gut wrenching. The pain physically hurts my heart. I kind of get into a funk this time of year. I got a sub for Zumba tonight because I just don't know if I can concentrate. It may be just what I need today... to dance and have fun and let go, but I just feel like hiding out. We will go to your grave and release 5 balloons for you. Look for them from heaven and know I am thinking of you today.

Happy Birthday sweet London! Thanks for being a guardian angel over your family. They love and miss you dearly. But you will all be reunited one day.
Paige, I love you. I don't know if it brings any comfort to you to know that she is not forgotten by your family and friends. But in any case, I want you to know that London is remembered. Every time you guys come down to visit, and I see Madi, Boston, and Maren, without fail, my heart skips a beat and London flashes into my mind.
And I think that part of what makes the memory of her so sweet, is that with the exception of her little body, she left the earth perfect, like the Savior. She was never proud, dishonest, judgmental, or ungrateful. London has a special place in my heart where she will be remembered, perfect.

We are thinking of you. May you be overwhelmed with peace as you close your eyes tonight.
