Bring the Rain
For those of you who have ever lost a child, or know someone who has, this blog is incredible. Having lost four babies myself, giving birth to one and knowing her for a brief four hours before she died, I can tell you every sentiment, every feeling, every sentence is absolutely true. From mourning to dancing, this blog will completely bless you.

peyton's rocker

Peyton is a precious little girl with a sweet, sweet grandma. Each of the grandbabies have received their own painted rocking chair that coordinates with their nursery theme. With Peyton just having her first birthday, it was her turn to receive a rocker. Peyton loves to rock, and has been scamming the other girls' chairs while patiently waiting for her own. I was told as soon as she saw this, she sat down to rock. We wish this girl many relaxing moments hanging out in her chair!

Big sis was glad it was time for Peyton to get her chair . . . because that meant she got to pick out some cookies when she came with Grandma to pick up the chair! That's what I call a win-win!
