I haven't taken Delaney out to see Colton before. To keep it real... I have had an irrational fear of the cemetery. I had this crazy fear if I took her out there, death would steal her from me too. (Have I mentioned how irrational grief can be??).
So I'm working on overcoming fears. So yesterday we went to visit Colton. I realized two things.
One, this is a place of love and joy and peace, not fear.
Two, Colton needs new flowers.
Delaney was so full of joy out there. Laughing and giggling. I snapped this as she started to squeal as a butterfly had landed on her hand and took off again.
The butterfly was a bright, pure white. Beautiful, innocent, and comforting. And on the wings of that butterfly flew off my fear...
Happy Easter, Colton. We love and miss you. And promise to visit again soon .. .. ..
