Memento's....


For a long time now I have wanted to put together a shelf.. not a shrine, but just a special place for small memento's that I have of Brayden. It is still a work in progress ... but I have finally begun to put it together.



This is definately my Favorite picture!! The funeral home we used gave us a box of thank you cards and service programs that had this picture displayed on the front. It serves to be a constant reminder and comfort to me... The roses there are a few from the funeral...
My baby boy is truly... in The arms of Jesus....

One of the greatest gifts I was given after Jesus took Brayden home, were some of his First Curls. Brayden was almost bald, and has just finally started getting more hair his last few months... there were even a few curls the rested softly on his neck. Though he never recieved a haircut we were able to recieve a few of his curls. (Thank you Noah!) This meant so much to me and is something I will treasure forever...
I wanted a very special place to keep them so I had this box made to store them in... which is now sitting on my new shelf.


What a special gift.
Just thought I would share....

Truly BEAUTIFUL and thank you for sharing. I have so much respect and admiration for what I call 'precious moments of life.' It does take lots of raw courage to share this with others, especially strangers, like myself. Sure hope you're alright with me visiting your beautiful blog and commenting here. I'd truly like to visit often and extend an offer of friendship~can't really explain why, just one of those 'heart things' and I hope this makes sense. God has seemed to always move me in truly mysterious ways and today He led me here, to your blog. :) May He bless you and your precious family~always! (((HUGS)))
