CarlyMarie Project – Day 11

                                     Special Place

 

It was never an option to leave Clara’s room as it was.  We found this hutch to be a place where we could place special things that were received or purchased in memory of her.  Angels, flowers, and pictures fill our special place.  It is a place where we can share Clara with our guests.

We also keep pictures of her with the rest of our kids because she will forever be one of our children.

CarlyMarie Project 2013 – Day #28

Special Place

“Peace. 
It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work.
In means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.” 

We have a few special places for Clara.   Today I picked the “peanut” we designed in her memory.  We often called Clara out little peanut and when she passed we found it fitting to create a peanut shaped area in our yard to hold her tree.  The bench is perfect for when we want to go out and reflect or just have some quiet time.  One each side of the bench are lilies.  We try to decorate the area for the holidays.

The kids love watching the blooms bud and open each year.  This year it produced fruit and the boys watched them grow.   Someday Clara’s tree will be the pinkest place in town, until then we watch it grow and hope it is as beautiful as she would have been.
