April 18th


It's hard to believe it's been a year since we lost Matty. Today has been easier than I imagined but I have had several moments already today where I have felt extremely overwhelmed. I think my emotions are everywhere today and I am just trying to figure out how I am "suppose" to feel. The boys and I went out to the cemetery this afternoon and spent well over an hour out there. On Monday night we order live butterflies from a place in Florida and they arrived yesterday afternoon. We ordered twelve butterflies to represent the twelve months that Matty has been gone. To our surprise though, we ended up with thirty-six butterflies!

Shannon, Samuel and I put a lot of thought into making this day special. We planted a beautiful flower, released a balloon and released thirty six butterflies!





Here are a few images of us remembering our sweet angel baby Matty today...






























































We love you Matty and miss you very much. 4.18.12
