I try to find positive in all things and so I have had to make my mind think of positive things in this experience and not dwell on my selfish wants. I'm grateful that she is a beacon to help me be a better person to do the things I need to, to be with her again. I'm grateful she will not have to go through the hardships of this life. I think it has brought our family even closer to each other and to not take life for granted. I'm grateful for Eternal Families!
We planted a orange tree last year in memory of Aubrey. It has been fun to go out and look at our "Aubrey Tree". So as we celebrate her 1 year birthday It has been a joy to see all the blooms that have come on her tree. Spring has become an even more enjoyable time for me. I'm reminded that life goes on. I look forward to watching this tree grow and grow, to show our future grandchildren our "Aubrey Tree", and sharing with them the knowledge that I have that Families are Forever.

What a great tribute to Aubrey, Jeannie! It's hard to believe it's been one year. Thanks for sharing something so personal today.
I can't believe it's been a year either. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I think of you all often. I love the Aubrey Tree. :)
Hugs
I am thankful for this post. There are so many, more than I ever thought, that have loved and lost children. Hearing this and hearing how you love her so much makes my heart ache, but I am so grateful to see how you are your wonderful family handle these hard situations. I am more grateful now for my children and love my little baby sleeping in the next room just a little more.
I love you Jeanie!
I have been thinking of you all recently. Hugs and prayers sent your way.
