We had fun baking together. I think we’ll make this a tradition to do every year for the babies. Heidi’s color is purple, Lily was always pink, Paige, yellow and our little boy, Rylan, is blue. So we saw it fitting to decorate their cupcakes in those colors. (Although when typing this, I just realized that Heidi’s cupcake was pink this year too. Oops!)
On another note, my good blogger friend told me today that I “…remind [her] that its okay to move forward and enjoy what life has to offer. “ Thanks for pointing that out, Andrea. I didn’t realize that, but it is SO true. Going though this experience has taught me many things, and one is to enjoy the life we have and appreciate our life. It may be hard to appreciate what life has dealt us at times, but I firmly believe that God has a plan for us, and good will come of this.
Thank you all for your sweet Heaven Day messages! We really appreciate all your love and support.
You are such an inspirational lady! The cupcakes are adorable - just like your sweeties.
ReplyDeleteI think the cupcakes are a PERFECT tradition for the sweets!!! You are so right...it is okay to move on but that does not mean you have to forget! You won't and we won't!! HUGS!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! The cupcakes are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a "sweet" way to honor your babies. I also think what your friend Andrea said is very true. As hard as it may seem to go on...our choices are limited. Celebrate all the wonderful and beautiful things happening around you, while always remembering your sweet babies.

Lauren,
ReplyDeleteYou and Josh are the cup cakes....and they are "forever" your "sprinkles".
Thank you for always reminding me that its okay to enjoy the "good" things that life has to offer :) We WILL ourselves forward, remember our children and know that their little lives "have purpose" and through them the hearts of many have been touched.
We walk this journey to honor "them"...and you walk with GRACE.
xoxo
what a wonderful tradition! I plan on doing cupcakes as well - but mine will be no where near as delicious looking I am sure!
ReplyDeleteI agree! You are an inspiration. I feel like I am so far behind you in the healing process, but it is great to have someone to help guide me to get there.
