December 5th


December 5th was my originial due date. Even since I found out I was pregnant I was so looking forward to December 5th! I was counting down the days. Laying in bed each night just dreaming about what it would be like to have my little baby at home with me. I never thought I would be visiting Collin's grave on December 5th. I had been praying that I would feel comforted particularly on that day. I was worried that I wouldn't even be able to function. The day went much better than I had anticipated. I think Collin was comforting me that day. Of course I was sad. But I also felt so grateful to know that he is mine for eternity. I am so grateful he is sealed to me and Chris. I am so grateful he is my son. I love you Collin.


Chris built a little snowman for Collin. His hands froze but he didn't stop. It was cute to watch him as he talked to Collin telling him they were building their first snowman together. Chris is such a great dad and he loves Collin so much.
My family came to visit Collin also. It was incredibly foggy outside so for some reason the camera wouldn't take a clear picture. They brought the red Christmas flowers and the little stuffed aminal. They love and miss Collin. He is their first newphew and first grandson.
