Today I went to the cemetery and saw that the headstones had been put in place. I kept it together pretty good at the cemetery. I felt comforted that the stones look so beautiful and represent how I feel about them. I do feel peace and comfort knowing that my final resting place will be next to my husband and son. Looking at Jace's headstone has been very difficult. He was our little miracle. He was given to us through the miracle of adoption. We cherished being his parents. We loved him so much. Having him as our son was such a gift from Heavenly Father and having him taken away from me feels like more heartache than any person should ever have to endure. I feel so much gratitude for being able to be his mother and I hope that those feelings can help me on days like today, when it hurts so much.

They turned out so beautiful! I remember looking at Preslee's and thinking it felt so final when it was placed. It's a hard feeling. I still think of you often!
I found your blog through another just after the accident and have been following your story. Seeing those dates on the headstones is so gut-wrenching but your faith is amazing, I love that the temple is on the stone.I cant imagine the amount of character and strength needed to get through something like this, you are a spiritual giant! Sending prayers your way.
