"While some people dream of angels, we held one in our arms."
A blog about loss, healing, and a little bit of life.

We were browsing at Kohl's today and look what Jason found!!! I don't really want to put up the tree this year, but he wants to, so at least we have this to put on in memory of our little man.
The first Christmas after my father died, I got my mother a 2' artificial tree and decorated it with round photo 'ornaments' of two pictures that were really special - a 'Papa' tomato from the garden planted shortly before he died and cherries Katie found on a tree in their yard the afternoon he died. I tied them on with red yarn, and it's perfect (if I do say so myself)!
You might think about finding or making 'Eli' items for the tree or make a little one just for him. You've got the first crab :)
'Lucy'
PS - I'll get my check off today or tomorrow for the cookbook!
