Friday Sept 11:

Clifford got up early and went to the cemetery. having got permission from the funeral director and the groundskeepers he went and made up a box to lay the Ern in. We got the glass case and set things up for the graveside service. The kids were overwhelmed by the amount of people who came to show them love and support.
They had a very sweet and simple service, The Bishop asked me to give the opening prayer, He said a few words, they played the following songs.">and "> Cliff dedicated the grave. Then they all went to the church for a small dinner.
After everyone had left Clifford wrapped a blanket around Jayden ashes and placed him in the grave. This was his final act of service that he felt he needed and wanted to do. His final way of being able to say goodbye.

We got to the church which was set up beautifully, A wonderful meal, by ladies we had never even met... What sweet ladies they were. They wouldn't" even let us help to clean up afterwards. (bless their hearts.)

The week before he passed away the Hospice called an organization called
NILMDTS (Now I lay me down to sleep) . these are photographers that volunteer their time ,at no charge to take pictures of these special babies , so that the families have something to keep. They came and took some pictures for them...they will come out at another time and take some pictures of Alexis as well.
Here are a few of those special pictures.

Just wanted to say how grateful I am for the faith that I have, for knowing that I have a Father in Heaven who knows me and loves me. I know that he has a plan for us and that there is a reason for being here on this earth ,to gain experience and learn to be like him, that we will live after this life. I know that families are forever and that we can and will be together again. I am so grateful for little Jayden. that he could be with us even if it wasn't as long as we would have liked. He touched so many people in his short time here.
so grateful for the friends and family who have been on this journey with us these past few months,you have helped smooth the way for us in countless way.
