I made this today. I really LOVE this pic, but the original was all dark and blotchy, with grains and hard to make out. So I found a photo editor online and look at how awesome it came up! It has been one week since the birth and passing of our little babe. It has been the hardest week of my life. I do feel a bit better each day, and can almost feel him with me. The day before I was induced (so Thursday July 8th) I was on the computer and I looked up to the window (our computer is directly under the window with the a/c) and there was a dove sitting on the a/c (on the outside of course). He was just staring at me. He had to have been about 2 feet away and he stayed there just looking at me for like 2 minutes. The next day John saw him on the same spot, and I just saw him now. It's like Mark is saying "I'm still here with you mama and papa".
Great job with the picture mama!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhen I found out about Madi having spina bifida, and EVERY day, no matter the weather, until she was born, I saw a butterfly. I feel God gives us those little experiences to remind us He is with us, always. It always filled me with so much hope. I pray you are blessed with hope as well.
ReplyDeleteHe is so beautiful. Prayers for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteMark is so beautiful! I wonder if Mark and Faith have met eachother and are playing.

ReplyDeleteHello,

I am not sure if you are on Facebook or not..but I wanted to extend a few helping hands that understand loss very well and would be more than happy to lend an ear, a shoulder, or just more prayers. Becki (blog and facebook page listed below) makes wonderful Memorial Photo Collages, as well as Jessi, both women are super nice and understanding. So when you are ready if you would like to contact them, I am sure they would be able to listen and provide you with some keepsakes to remember Mark even more.
