34 Weeks

Dear Aaron,

Hi sweetie! Happy 34 week heaven day peanut. Your daddy and I got our team for WalkAmerica up and running. We were having a tough time deciding on a team name. After a couple suggestions from some friends we decided to go with "The 'A' Team". Your daddy got a kick out of that name. I am so glad we are going to be able to do this and I think its even more appropriate that it is right after your birthday. Lately we got some really nice things in memory of you that have been so nice. At Christmas Grammy and PopPop put a lamb in the garden at Tabor - I keep meaning to take a picture of that, it's adorable. Then, Grandma and Grandpa donated a lamb through the Heifer Project in your memory. The lamb is something your daddy and I just held out to that reminds us of you, because you had a little tiny stuffed lamb that you cuddled with in the hospital - it was just the right size for you. A couple more donations came in from the hospital recently. Then just this weekend we got a card from a friend of mine. She was telling her dad about our story and he made a donation to a hospital in Atlanta in your memory. They sent us a beautifully printed card saying so. It just warms my heart so much that even after 34 weeks people still think about you and do things like this. I know you are never far from my mind and it seems like this goes for a lot of other people as well.

I miss you peanut - and so do a lot of other people - that will never stop...

Love always and forever,
Mommy
