Today is Baby Ella's 2nd birthday and here is how we celebrated. You can find out more about baby Ella by looking at my cousin's wife's blog - The Endless Pile of Laundry - on my blog list to the right. Megan and Jason are amazing, and they may be tired of hearing that, but it is inspiring and touching to know their story.
The balloon release
Abby wasn't sure she wanted to let her balloon go
Because we have been focusing a bit on the temple this week, our conversation about Baby Ella made more sense, at least I hope. Like the balloons, Baby Ella has moved on but because she is sealed to her family for eternity, she and her family will be back together again once they are all in Heaven. She just got there a little sooner than they will. And like Abby, sometimes it's a hard to let go, but unlike a balloon that we don't really expect to see again, Ella's family can fully expect to see her again.
Thank you for sharing those cute pics of your children & leading me to the amazing story of your family. It's so moving, i've been thinking about it all day. what strength they displayed & what a beautiful little girl she was. Thank you for sharing :) inspirational :)
