It was two years ago today that with much sadness we said hello and goodbye to our son Matthew. The sadness hasn't really subsided for me, because there isn't a day that goes by that I'm not reminded of some milestone or moment that we will never share with him. But the sadness is overshadowed by the great joys our four girls bring to our lives every day. I find happiness in the little moments, thankful for each smile, laugh, and mischevious grin that comes my way. I realize that for whatever reason, Matthew was meant to watch over us from above, and it brings me great peace knowing that he travels in the stars, the flowers, the rain, and the sunshine that warms us every day.
So Happy Birthday Matthew. We hold you in our hearts.

What a beautiful tribute to Matthew--I was thinking of him this week, knowing that you carry him in your hearts as you do all your children.
