Maddalyn's first birthday

Yesterday we celebrated Maddy's first birthday. We all released ballons up to our angel at the park by our house. It was a perfect moment watching them rise up further into the clear blue sky. The kids ran around and played and we all just enjoyed the sunshine. Later we came home and spent more time as a family with Maddys aunt and uncles and cousins. After everyone went home myself, Aaron, and the girls made cupcakes for Maddys birthday and sang Happy Birthday to our baby girl. It was a wonderful day. We love you so much babygirl. Happy Birthday!

Life now

It has been months since I have updated the blog. We as a family are trying our best to be happy and remember our little angel. Some days are hard. My four year old is in tears weekly because she misses her sister. She sleeps with one of Maddys blankets. I dont know how to help her heal. I miss her too. We all do. Mothers Day was yesterday and it wasn't the smae without my baby here with me. I loved all the gifts and pictures the girls gave me but it was hard at times to not break down. We have been working in Madddy's room to rehome the baby stuff and make room for her sister to move in. the older girls have been sharing a room since before Maddy was born because I thought it was important the baby have a room. Now theres no reason the room should sit unused when Maddy's sisters need the space. We have been so touched by our family and friends remembering Maddy. We know she impacted the world around her. She had such a great energy around her and everyone felt it! I miss you babygirl. have a good day in Heaven angelbear!
