I just wanted to write and thank everyone for the love and support shown to our family. It has been a very difficult couple of days with a lot of sadness and tears. But we feel very lucky to have all of you as friends and are so grateful to know there are so many people willing to help at a moments notice.
With the sadness and tears, we have also had some beautiful moments as a family. Knowing about the plan of salvation has truly helped us through this difficult time. Ryan and I have had some amazing conversations about how truly lucky we have been to have such a perfect little spirit brought into our lives. We feel so privileged to have been trusted as the parents to our little Ian. We also know that we will be with him again one day.
We know there will be times of heart ache throughout our lives as we think about the exciting and wonderful things he would be doing by himself and with our family. We know that as we watch Darek grow up, we will remember that Ian should be there right by his side. And I'm sure, in a way, he still will be.
We are grateful for the strength and faith that we have been given to be able to deal with this trial in our lives. We are so grateful that we have been blessed with Alex and Darek. They have been the shining light in our darkest hours.
We will be finding out tomorrow about the funeral services that we will be holding. We will only be doing a graveside service, so it will not be very big. I will be posting that information on our blog tomorrow or Sunday so those who would like to attend, may do so.
Thank you again for all the support. If you have any questions, you may post them here, or send an email to us at shellybug49@hotmail.com
