Happy 2nd Birthday in Heaven to our Precious Karinne Claire
Oh, how we miss and love you on this day - and every day.
Hard to believe it has been that long and yet it seems far longer.
We sponsored our local christian radio station again this year for Karinne's birthday. Here is the sweet radio spot they are playing today in her honor: (Be sure to pause the music at the bottom before pushing play.)
We also found out today that we will be able to sponsor the movie "October Baby" in our town next weekend in honor of Karinne. It is a story about a young girl's journey after finding out that she is a survivor of a failed abortion attempt. We heard about this movie and wanted to sponsor it in Karinne's honor because we agree so much with the movie's theme that "EVERY LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL". And because Karinne is our own "October Baby" since we found out we were pregnant with her in October of 2009 and were so excited about our fourth child. Below is a trailer for the movie.
Please send up a prayer for our family today as we all go to work and school and remember our baby girl on her special day. We will be spending this evening celebrating her life and picking out new flowers for her garden. I hope that the day will be filled with more smiles than tears and that God's peace will surround us once again as it did on the day of her birth and entrance into heaven.
Also - we will be gathering at Karinne's grave at around 4 pm today to send off some balloons and birthday blessings. Anyone nearby is welcome to join us if you would like. We would love to share some hugs, smiles, and tears with you!
Love you and miss you sweet Baby Girl!! Again - Happy 2nd Birthday Karinne!
