Filling Carleigh's memory chest

I thought I would share something of Carleigh in today’s Wednesday Walk. The video I’m sharing is of me putting items in Carleigh’s memory chest. It was taken on November 9, 2009. The chest was made by hand by my aunt and uncle and this was the first time I had put anything in it. I had Anthony take a video of me doing so.I kinda mumble in it so you can’t really make out too much of what I say. About halfway through the video Kyndra comes along. I think she makes the video cute and I can’t believe how little she looks compared to now. It made me smile when she keeps saying, “Ready? Ready!” over and over. I remember when she used to say that constantly.

All of the items I put in the chest are for Carleigh except for two. The doily angel and the small plaque are Jordan’s.

If a picture is worth a thousand words...

...then I'd like to know the words that describe this picture:

I was working on Carleigh's scrapbook today and this was one of the pictures I placed on one of her pages. This was on March 29. One day after Carleigh's birth. One day after she left us. I was getting released from the hospital. I was getting ready to change her from her hospital outfit into her outfit I would take her to the funeral home in. The emotions in this one picture just pour out to me.

That is a day I never want to relive.
