As we hit the 6month mark on the 19th this month since Sydney passed away the emotions get stronger each day. The only thing that was missing lately was her "stone" for her area at the cemetery, and just like that it arrived yesterday.
As a parent you never in a million years want to be designing a headstone for one of your children; however, we all know the story, and it was something that had to be done. It was going to be done right, perfect, and just all about Sydney.
We wanted the stone to symbolize Sydney, and wanted her stone to remember her spunkyness, her love for dancing, the sparkle, and of course her brother, mommy, and daddy.
As I drove up to the cemetery with Logan this afternoon I started to cry. I was sad for a variety reasons; why do I have to have this for my baby girl, and wow it's so beautiful, so spot-on, that it's just perfect to remember her by.
Life isn't easy and this sure hasn't been easy what we've gone through. As people drive by and visit Sydneys area I want them to remember the sparkle of an amazing girl who has, and continues to touch many lives. This stone is just a little closure to a life changing event. It's just beautiful and perfect...just like our baby girl was.
