Someone You Love in Heaven

I've probably mentioned this quote before, but I love it. 
My sister made a sign with this quote on it for me for Mother's Day last year.
The quote is this:

"The best way to have Heaven in your home is to have somone you love in Heaven"

I cried when she gave it to me, but it is honestly the best!
For Christmas, I gave my family a picture of Ethan with this quote beneath.
I had ordered a bunch of these pictures, but then only gave a few away.
I decided there probably weren't many people that wanted that quote with Ethan.
However, yesterday as I was "organizing" I came across our extras of this photo.
I decided to see if our friends and their kids wanted a copy.
I was skeptical they would want any.
These friends loved it, thanked me for it and even took more copies!!
It made my day.  I didn't know it would. (Pretty sure it made Parker's too)
For the first time in a while, I cried. 
I cried because I was so happy someone (besides immediate family) loves my Ethan enough to want the picture.
I should've known. 
His funeral was packed.
People do love him.
I just love knowing that.



This is the picture I used with the quote above.

  1. So fantastic! The funeral program with his picture on it sat on my entry table for months. Everyone loved to see it and hear me tell the fun stories I learned about him.
