Today, in my heart, I celebrate the birthday of our daughter Grace, born 16 years ago, passing away just the day before.
I never imagined back then that the clock would ever tick again or that this day could ever come. But it has, and Jeff and I have been blessed by God many times over ever since.
I have come to accept that I may never fully understand the path God has chosen for my life, but find great peace in simply knowing there is one.
I purchased the beautiful painting of the delicate pink roses yesterday, to honor Grace’s 16th birthday, from my favorite Etsy artist, Mary Wolf of marysworkshop. Isn’t it just lovely?
