Happy Birthday Evie

After the party, we took Evie her flowers. Birthdays are hard. Saturday before we left for the party Ramsey asked if Evie was going to be there. Things like that make me heartbroken. I hate it for her. I cant believe this is the 2nd birthday without her.
Jonathan and Ramsey flew a kite while we were there
watching the clouds
I love listening to Klove and a song has been coming on recently that makes me think of Evie and Reese. I feel comfort in holding Reese almost like a part of Evie is in her and the song You Make Beautiful Things makes me think of them.

All this pain
i wonder if i will ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
all this earth
could all that is lost ever be found
could a garden come up from this ground at all
You make beautiful things
you make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us.
All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in you
You make me knew, You are making me new
Happy 3rd birthday Evie!!
We love you and miss you so much.

    My baby turned 3 on the 23rd (last Friday). I can't imagine how difficult the birthday of Evie and Ramsey must be. I love that song too! We sing it in church sometimes. It is a beautiful reminder of God turning our mourning into dancing. I had two miscarriages before my baby was born. It will be a glorious day when we are all reunited with our babies in heaven:) I pray that your days are filled now with more joy than sorrow. Reese and Ramsey are both so beautiful:)
