Every time I look out at my rose bush, I see two little pink roses. This rose bush has rarely had flowers on it all summer. The first time, which was just a few days ago, I cut them off and brought them in to put into a vase. They aren't big beautiful full roses that you would normally think of, but they reminded me so much of Reese and Scotlyn.
Yesterday, two more pink roses popped up. Only two again. I decided to take them to the cemetery for my girls.
It had been quite a while since we had been there. I don't go as often as I feel like I should (I don't know how much I should go anyway) In my mind, I don't feel guilty because I think about Reese and Scotlyn all the time. I definitely do not need to take a trip to their grave for them to consume my thoughts.
Brennan was soooo sweet. He saw some of the other graves' flowers knocked over and he kept asking me if he could fix them. He melts my heart.
We went to the park after. There is another little playground near the one we usually play on and there was a merry go round...fun!
We had fun spinning each other and spinning together:)
Aw. I think almost everyone thinks they don't go enough. I know we do! Love the roses.
ReplyDeleteOh that is so sweet and touching! Brennan seem like the best little boy. I know your girls are never far from your heart. Saying a prayer for you my friend.
ReplyDeleteI never know how much I should go either. I've actually been thinking about that a lot this week, maybe I'll go so I stop thinking about it :) I love the roses. I think things like that are little tender mercies to make our lives a little better. LOVE the merry go round pictures! You're such a good mother.
