Happy 2nd Birthday Aaron!

Dear Aaron,
In the scriptures it tells us our words and actions are recorded by the angels in Heaven. I hope whomever may be recording my words and actions today will pass them along to you. Happy Birthday sweet boy! I imagine today would be a fun filled day, no brothers at home with us, just you and me celebrating the day away. We would probably buy you a trike so you could ride bikes with the boys. You would practice in the basement with Preston, it seems in our family during the winter the empty basement becomes the play land for bikes and anything with wheels. All though Dad has helped your brothers discover remote control cars, so maybe we would be getting you one of those to keep up with the boys. I wonder what we would make for your family dinner? I am sure something easy like Mac n cheese or chicken nuggets isn't that what all 2 year olds love? Of course cake and ice cream would be served and family would come and what a day it would be.....who are we kidding around here it is a week celebration at least, if not longer.

Of course you are not here, so instead we hang a Happy Birthday banner (made by Aunt Tessa) and ever so silently mourn the day we celebrate you. We will visit you at your grave with candles (your brother wanted strobe lights, but I am not sure how I feel about that @ the cemetery). We love you and miss you everyday, and we want you to know that we feel you, we know you are close.

Love you so much,
From all of us but especially Mom

P.S in case you didn't know......but I am sure you knew before us-YOU ARE GOING TO BE A BIG BROTHER!
