Two months ago, I checked my e-mail and noticed I had a comment on my blog from someone I didn't know. Inside this message was a mother. Her and her husband had been touched by our story and wanted to extend there helping hand and help us get a permant marker for Lexi's grave. That morning my eyes filled with tears and floods of emotion. I almost thought, this can't be real, and it wouldn't really happen. Heavenly Father had seen my tears, heard my cries, and listened to my prayers and knew this was something I needed. So he sent me an answer to my prayers through this loving family. I don't know the Groat's, but I will never forget them and I will be forever grateful for them! The very next week after I got the e-mail I found my self of Utah Monument ordering Lexies headstone. Something that just days earlier I thought would take 2,3,5, maybe 8 or more years, but it wasn't going to be any time soon. And just late last week it was finished and delivered to the cemetary!!
Lexi's headstone is beautiful and perfect and I am SO happy!
Thank you will never seem like enough, but "THANK YOU GROAT FAMILY"
Hopefully by your shining example I can pay it forward some day!
With the holiday's comming up, it couldn't have been more of a perfect time to have Lexi's Headstone completed!
Josh and I's immediate family who was in town and able to come helped share this special day with us. Today Lexi would be 4months old! I wanted family to be a part of the special day, so I brought some chalk and had those who were there sign the cement around lexis marker. I also got flowers that had purple and my family wore purple. Purple is a symbol of Lexi. It's her special color! Every single time I see purple I think of my little Angel!
I think the chalk added a wonderful touch! Wish it would stay on forever, but that's okay, cause the kids and I will make lots of visits and redecorate it every time :) Something I'll never get board of!
