A Walk to Remember

This year was the 19th annual Walk to Remember at the hospital where we delivered the boys.  They put on this walk each year to remember the footsteps of sweet babies lost to still birth and miscarriage that they never got to take.  This year, the walk was very lonely.  Unfortunately most of our loved ones were not able to join us.  While we appreciate that everyone has very busy lives, it was still difficult not to be surrounded by our normal support group.  We do appreciate their love and sentiments from long distance though, but definitely missed their faces that day.  We are very grateful for sweet Natalie and her family for joining us on the walk.  She has only met us once, and her family had never met us before, but they were sweet enough to be there to support us during a difficult walk.  We had cute family shirts made to support "Team Larson".  Hopefully in the future, there will be more shirts at the walk, because if I have to say so myself.  They are quite cute!



 It is an unfortunate sight that there are hundreds that are there to walk.  We are grateful for all those who remember the babies and their families who have suffered such a great loss, but it is terribly tragic to realize how many understand the pain we feel.  For all those mothers and fathers and family members and friends of precious angels in Heaven, we are sorry and our hearts go out to you.  We will always remember our sweet little boys. Not a day goes by that we do not miss them dearly.  To Ethan and Tommy, we love you so very much and we will always remember the great joy you brought to our lives and how your memory continues to change our hearts and our lives.  All our love, Mom and Dad.
