7 Months!

Happy seven month heavenly birthday Carter! I hope you got the balloon we sent to you last night. Your daddy told me that when we were going outside to send it to you he heard some geese honking. That made me smile!

I can't believe it's been 7 months already. In some ways it seems like so much longer than that but in other ways it seems like just yesterday. I still miss you every day. And I still think about you every day too. But thankfully, it doesn't hurt like it hurt before. I am so grateful for that. I think my heart will always ache for you, but I've found some peace with you being gone.

I was thinking yesterday in church about how my life has changed since having you. I truly try more to enjoy every day life more and not worry about the future. I know I can't change anything and that I have no control over what happens in life. I'm simply along for the ride. So, I'll just be grateful for today! Thank you for teaching me that!

I've gotten some pictures from people lately and comments too. I wanted to share them with you!


From your Nana: What I saw on the horizon this am on the hill by the storage units. It must be 5 ~6 ft tall! Happy 7 month angelversary Carter. You done good with this one. Nana made sure she shared it with your mommy.

From our friend Dan: Comes 1 foot from me and the girls. Lions Park. Kelly: "I saw his webbed feet!"
Another one from our friend Dan: Carter, move your karma off the road! Seriously, they were so slow they were almost standing. :-)
