Spent today with my precious family, and had a very special gift for my Dad. Carol Pierce worked so hard to get this quilt made. It is perfect…beautiful! I see my beloved Ashley in every fibre, every thread. The stars are made from Ashley’s baby clothes (and one Zach blanket). So many memories ties with these sweet little outfits. It is not the clothes, but the precious little girl who wore them, who made memories for her and for me…memories I will forever hold close as the treasures that they are…for Ashley and Zach are my greatest treasures on this earth. One earthly treasure remains here with me, the other treasure awaits me in heaven with my beloved Savior.
I so wish Ashley had been here to spend the day with us, but she sent me some love notes; a monarch butterfly few around me and Bill while we were at Mom and Dad’s; some beautiful clouds to remind me that our hearts are forever connected: lots of hearts and some angels.
I know Mom and Dad will treasure this always. I’m so thankful for my family, and for God’s greatest gift of salvation, and that I am promised to one day see my Ashley again…to never say goodbye…no more tears…joy in my Savior’s presence forevermore. Loved…treasured. 💕💕
