| These ladies are my closest friends here in Alexandria. They are my prayer partners, my girls night date, and often, my sanity. All of our children are the same age and I could sob when I think about how blessed I have been by their presence in my life. This was during a birthday lunch at one of our favorite restaurants. |
 |
| Meadow was extra loved during her last few days. By loved I mean forced to continue playing silly dress up games with Sarah Avery. |
 |
| Susannah had a stomach virus last weekend and Honey was so worried about her. |
 |
| It was only 24 hours long though and then she was back in action working on some crafts. |
 |
| Finished product |
 |
| Sarah Avery spent the morning with her friend Delaney while Peter and I had a work thing. |
 |
| They had the best time. |
 |
| SA had homemade pizza day at school last week. |
 |
| Fun times were had by all. |
 |
| SA and her friend Howard Thomas |
 |
| We gave Meadow lots of treats during her last days. |
 |
| And Susannah spent every possible moment with her. Even homework time. |
 |
| SA even shared her graham crackers. |
 |
| This was their last breakfast together. I'm pretty sure Meadow enjoyed some Kashi cereal. |
 |
| SA also had beach day this week at school. |
 |
| And then Uncle Andy came through town for work and spent the night with us. |
 |
| The girls were so excited to see him. |
 |
| He participated in all the story reading. We love you Uncle Andy. |
 |
| On Saturday, we bought white flowers and put them in the river as a little memorial to Meadow. |
 |
| We all said a few words about her and it was super sweet and a great way to honor her. |
And that has been our life the past couple of weeks. We hope all of you are enjoying the beginnings of spring and looking forward to Easter, when we remember that love and goodness are stronger than death and darkness. All our love from Virginia.
