“The Lord bless you for showing this kindness . . . ." - 2 Samuel 2:5
I was so touched by this and the lily was was beautiful and smelled sooooo good! I decided we needed to have it inside for the rest of the day so we could enjoy it:
Ummmm ... the flowers smelled so good! And the colors are beautiful:
Today my husband planted the liles in Lilly's memorial garden. How nice to have a burst of color:
After that, the kids and I came in and made some caterpillars for Lilly's memorial tree for May. They turned out cute. Caterpillars are in memory of Lilly's favorite stuffed toy, Hank, who is buried with her.
T. made a paper caterpillar with a space for each of us to write a message to Lilly on:
The garden is so pretty! I love the homemade caterpillars:) Saying a prayer for you now!
ReplyDeleteCaterpillars spin a cocoon and become beautiful butterflies - ready to soar!
ReplyDeleteLike Lilly who's earthly body has been transformed into a heavenly being where she soars on angel's wings!
May God continue to comfort you and surround you with HIS earth angels [friends & family].
love - me

Visiting from Tesha's link up. Your sweet Lily was born on my son's due date, but he came late & was born on 7/13/10. He had Trisomy 13 and died on the 14th. So sorry to hear of your Lily's passing. It truly is a hard road. {{hugs}}
ReplyDeleteI know I typed a comment on this blog the other day, but it isn't here... (I sound like my own customers... LOL)
ReplyDeleteThe Lilly garden is looking beautiful and will get better and better every year. :)
The caterpillars turned out great. Such a cute idea.
See you soon.
I am from Tesha's link up. SO sorry for the loss of your sweet daughter, she is just so beautiful!
