Seven months ago today our precious Sarah passed away. Last week Brian and the children saw her grave marker in person for the first time. As a family we reminisced on the happiness Sarah brought to us. Tonight Brian and I returned and visited this special spot once more, also stopping by the graves of Sarah's great-grandparents. While it is difficult to have her buried far from where we live, we take comfort knowing she is buried close to these dear family members.

I thought about ya'll yesterday. We still pray for your comfort and peace every night. Words fail me, but I will say that I'm truly amazed by the Giles family.
How neat that must be to have the resting place completed. Hopefully it is a comforting feeling. It is such a beautiful stone! It is perfect for little Sarah. I hope your visits there will always be peaceful. We are always thinking of you.
Oh Golly Christine, where do I post. I loved the summer vacation pictures! Handsome G-pa with your little one. I'm so glad Brian and your family we're all together visiting sweet Sarah.
Please tell your Mom she looks great! I wanted a close-up however. I hope she is feeling better.
I did think of you on the 9th, as was our Ryan's birthday. That number "9" is sufficient to our families.
Oh Brittney and Sarah........what are you both doing today? Laughing.....is good. That gives me comfort.
HUGS to all of you!
I do not Know you but, my maiden name is Giles. Some how I came across your beautiful blog months ago. I check back in to see how you are all handling your loss of your sweet little girl. I pray for
you and feel too so greatful to be sealed in the temple and have that blessing of a eternal family. Especially when a loved one has gone to our creator. I hope you don't mind me posting, but I just wanted to say something. You have a beautiful family!
What a sweet picture of you and your children. My great grandparents and their children who did not reach adulthood are buried in the Provo Cemetery. I always love to visit it - it is such a peaceful setting. Hope you made it home safely.
Glad you could all visit her and see her headstone. Seven months -- I hope you are finding more peace with time. I also know her sweet presence will always be missed.
Such a wonderful place to visit family and be near Sarah grave site.I was amazed by it's peaceful beauty when I visited. I can't wait to hear more about the trip.
