Thank you to dear friends who anonymously decorated Sarah's bench.
A loving grandfather clears away the snow on Sarah's headstone while grandmother imprints a heart in the snow and decorates her spot with a Christmas wreath.
We miss you Sarah.
ReplyDeleteOur thoughts and prayers will be with you Christine and your family as you reflect on the wonderful life Sarah had.
How grateful I am that we can be with our families for eternity.
What a beautiful little girl! My heart goes out to you this day.

ReplyDeleteThis is my favorite picture of Sarah, once an angel on earth now in heaven. We will always mourn her loss but have hope to live in her presence again one day. How grateful we are for our Father's mericiful plan! May you feel her love more abundantly today.

Although we only shared the ward with you for a very short time, and we did not know each other, having so many of the same friends has allowed me a window into your sweet family. I have thought of you often over the past year, and have been uplifted by the grace with which you are enduring this separation from Sarah. How blessed we are to have the sealing ordinances and the knowledge that Sarah is guaranteed Celestial glory. My prayer is that the Spirit will be with you today and provide your family with a measure of comfort.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless you sweet Giles family. It is my heartfelt prayer that the comforter surround you now more than ever. May you feel our Savior's love for you, Sarah's love for you, and your friends love for you on this day... and always.
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful. I think that every time I see one your sweet pictures of her. Your family is often in our thoughts and prayers. Our hearts go out to you today.
ReplyDeleteSarah isn't and never will be forgotten.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you.
ReplyDeleteSending you lots of love... how grateful I am for the Plan! You and your family are still in my thoughts and plans. May you have a peaceful and special day today.
ReplyDeleteWe are thinking of your sweet family today, and are sure that you have a Christmas angel watching over you.

ReplyDeleteWe love you and hope that your visit to the temple today was uplifting. Sarah is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing all the nice pictures on your blog.
ReplyDeleteTalked with your Mom this morning. We had a good cry together. I asked her when she and your Dad went to the cemetery today, if they would draw a huge heart in the snow from us. We do that for Brittney. Somehow, I think she can see it from heaven.
ReplyDeleteWe hope many tender mercy's walked with you and Brian throughout the Temple today. I'm sure there were many.........
Hearts so tender for your whole family today!
We Love You ALL So Very Much!

I just love that photograph of Sarah. I miss her especially when I go to the school in the afternoon. Wishing I was closer for a good hug and cry together.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you all today :)
ReplyDeleteThinking of your sweet family today.
ReplyDeleteWe miss you Sarah- your smiles, laughter, and hugs. I gave Ellie an extra special hug from you today.
We are so grateful for eternal families.
I just wanted to tell your family we have been thinking of you this last week. The snow fall on Friday made me think of sweet Sarah. I'm sure she sent the snow for you! Thank you for sharing all your sweet memories of her with us through your blog.
ReplyDeleteI miss you Sarah.
ReplyDeleteI am thankful for the quiet time I spent today alone at Sarah's gravesite. Although it was a chilly fifteen degrees, my heart was warm with feelings gratitude and peace.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about you and your family today.
ReplyDeleteSarah's bench looks beautiful. It looks like you are surrounded by many who love and care for you.
I thought about you and Brian all day yesterday. We all loved Sarah and miss her very much. I especially miss the twinkle in her eyes as she giggled and her cute voice. My heart is tender as I think about how many lives she touched. She spread joy where ever she went and I'm sure she is still spreading it with her Grandpa Giles and others who have passed on.
ReplyDeleteLast night I cried again as I saw the blog. I also felt Sarah and her Granpa Giles close.
Thank you Brian and Christine for your courage and the example you have been to all of us. The Lord loves you all and we love you too.
Love, Mom and Bill

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful it is to know that your little girl is watched over by so many loved ones while your family is in Texas. I love your parents Christine, always giving service, sharing their love of the gospel and family! It warms my hear and soul to know that there are so many people who love you and your family dearly! Little Sarah is so loved & protected as she awaits the day when such a loving Mother will embrace her once again.
