Family

Our family has grown since we lost Clara. I had no idea that in 4.5 years of marriage I would have 4 kids!! We can never replace Clara and we wouldn’t want to. Each year we are blessed with the opportunity to get a family picture that includes Clara. We pray that we get this opportunity every year.

Thank you to Lach's Legacy for hosting the annual "Run for Their Lives!" 5K run/walk each year.

I thought I would also share the family picture below as well. I think the wall decal describes it so well…. Super Heroes & Fairy Tales. It is bittersweet when school picture time comes and we change them out. Each year 5 little faces change so much and 1 stays the cute princess face we can only dream about.

Family can mean so many things.  I would also like to include my “family” of SIDS and infant loss.  That family, sadly, continues to grow.  It is this family that listens and understands my grief.  I am proud to call all of you family.  I only wish that our group no longer had to grow and that no child had to leave this earth so soon.  God Bless you all!!
