Today was a very difficult day. It was very sad and emotional. I knew it would be hard, but I honestly was not prepared to feel this way. After a day of grieving, your body and mind is exhausted. I have a headache the size of Texas, but hopefully the worst is behind me.
I write again to share how we honored Beck tonight and the special sign that was to follow. We went out for dinner and then headed to the cemetery to let our balloons go. When we got there we found some beautiful flowers and a teddy bear with balloons attached to his arm. Thanks guys!!! We sang happy birthday to our little guy and let the balloons soar. We lingered for a while, watching Holden and Grace run around. We said, "Let's go guys, come on!" We did one group hug and started to disperse.
That is when we got our sign. There was a little lady bug crawling up Grace's leg!! We could not believe it.
Those that have followed our story, you know why this is significant. For any new followers...the day of the graveside service Grace took off and squealed loudly at the service, "A legobug! A legobug!" She took off and was attending to the legobugs. It brought laughter to everyone there. It was a break in the utter sadness we were all feeling. So, the ladybug has been special to us.
It was the perfect ending to a not so perfect day:)
