a friend made this statement tonight and OH BOY is it ever the truth!
last night the funeral was so hard emotionally and physically (my legs almost gave out at the end when Chris and I went to sit down)
But at the same time Chris and I were in awe and AMAZED at the amount of people who came, but also stayed for the service.
You will all never know how much that TRULY meant to us.
It was SOO weird to both of us when we sat down in that couch to face the Cherub (name for baby coffin) with the curtians behind it, the lights and flowers. I just cant describe the feelings other than it was surreal
The service was beautiful!
Afterwards Chris , Kayla and I took a minute to reflect and say goodbye (for now)
Then we gathered at our clubhouse...and thank you EVERYONE who brought, food, drinks, paper products and whatever to make that happen.
Thank you to my pregnant sister who stayed (with my BFF) til after 1am to clean up and take stuff home for us.
It was hot but a BEAUTIFUL day
Tomorrow morning with just our family we go to bury Korbin at his final resting place. He will be put in a baby garden at the cemetery, we had thought about getting our plots now and putting him between us but it all happened so fast that never happened. He should be happy there tho he will (sadly) be with some of our friends kids.
I will post a picture of him for those of you that couldnt make it to the
service
What a sweet precious baby. We will continue to pray for you and your family.

Oh, Sweetie, my heart is breaking looking at those beautiful photographs. I know Korbin is in the best of company in heaven, but that is no substitute for his mother's arms. Peace to you as you walk this path. Be patient with yourself, and proud too. You brought him as far as you could. You enjoyed the time you had. And he was...absolutely gorgeous.
