Angel girl...

I've been thinking a lot lately about our little Emma Marie. I miss her most this time of year, when we celebrate Easter and the anniversary of her quiet birth. This week we will make our yearly pilgrimage to Provo to visit her grave. I look forward to this, not with sadness, but with joy. I feel such peace when I visit her resting place. I gain strength from the spirit there. And my heart becomes more and more grateful for the constant reminder she is to me to do my very best. I miss you dearly my little angel. And love you even more!

Priceless!

Abbi is a bit on the stingy side when it comes to smiles, at least when the camera comes out, so when these photos were taken a few days ago I almost cried tears of joy!

Nothing better than a fat, happy baby!

Happy Easter!





I'm not sure if Olivia was excited....?


Yep, Abigail seemed pleased as well.



( Abbi decided not to show off her easter dress at church today because she wanted to stay home with the stomach flu instead.)
