Beautiful tribute to your sweet babe on his first birthday. We're coming up on Charlotte's first and I'm dreading it. Much love as you remember George on his day.
That is beautiful Brianna. A touching tribute and wonderful way to remember George's birthday. Just 2 days earlier I was marking 6 months since Quinn and Trace's birth - amazing how it seems like it just happened and also that it was so long ago. Take care - you're in my thoughts.
I read this poem and it brought a little smile to my face. I thought of you Brianna, Leif and George Ellsworth.

Sending you love Brianna... the card is just beautiful.. and the painting of George still takes my breath away today just as it did the first time I saw it. Sweet George... you are beloved by so many who have come to know your story. Travel on sweet little boy.. Wishing you a beautiful celebration of a year to the day the were born.
Brianna, I am obviously so behind in my Google reader that here I am very belatedly telling you how beautiful and touching this is. I hope it was well received by your family and friends. xx
Brianna, I had never seen this post until tonight.

I have no idea if messages on older posts even reach you.
I feel like kicking and crying because I am so sad that George is dead. I don't want to be mature. I just want to cry.
Your card is beautiful. I'm hating this all over again. I want George to be with you, with Leif, with Clio.

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to remember your son by reminding your friends and family how special he will always be to you.
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. I never sent out any kind of birth/death announcement for Eliza, and I've wanted to do something. Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteBrianna, I woke up this morning thinking of you and Leif and George, and I apologize for not getting here sooner to tell you.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful tribute to your son.
Sending much love,
Sarah
Beautiful card. A perfect way to honour his life.
ReplyDeleteI lit a candle for your George this evening along with ones for my George and Little Poppet.
Sending love and peace.
