Your 2nd birthday has been a good day. I love to think about what life would have been like if you were here. I see overalls and sundresses, little feet in sandals, blond and brown heads bent over toys. I see Sabrina holding each one of you by the hand as we go places together. I see round cheeks and bright blue eyes. I see sisters that are the spitting image of each other, and a little boy who looks just like his dad. I see bouncing on the trampoline, sharing popsicles on a hot day, and playing at the park.
I believe those dreams are not dead. I believe that God has started a good work in our family and He will complete it, whatever it looks like.
I thank God for the 2 years (plus 39 weeks) that you have been in my life. Whether you're here physically or not, you have both given me so much! You have brought me joy. You have set me free. You have changed my heart forever.
Happy birthday little ones! I can only imagine what a birthday party in Heaven would look like.
Love and kisses,
Mom

Dear Nicholas & Olivia,
The joy I felt the first time I saw you and held you for the first time, cannot be put into words. Those months I spent taking care of you both were happy and hectic times. I will always treasure that time in my heart because I got to know two beautiful little lives in a way that most grandparents don't. You also changed my life forever. Nicholas, you will always be, 'my little Puddin' and Olivia, 'my little Peach'. I remember you every day. Even though this is a little late, I remembered you and wished you a "Happy Birthday" and blew you each a kiss. You are my little angels in heaven.
Love always, Gramma of 3
Lisa,
I keep coming back here meaning to write a post, but I don't have the words. I do want you to know that Nicholas and Olivia are "remembered" by someone who only knows them through the testimony of your blog.
Peace and prayers,
Hannah
