Today Jillian's marker was installed. We are thrilled to finalyl have her marker there, and to have a vase to arrange some flowers...instead of shoving them in the ground! I will be on the hunt for some perfect flowers for her first arrangement!! Tonight I just added what was already out there.
We are not sure what we think of it yet. I mean it will work and we do like it, but we were thinking there would be more granite than concrete, but there sure is a big chun kof concrete around it. It will work though----we love the granite we picked out, and the angel we picked for the corner, and will remind us of Jillian everytime we visit. I think no matter what, it is hard to "fall in love" with a marker that represents a child you buried. We moved all of her special things and I am now on the hunt for a birthday flag! Just over a month and we will celebrate her 1 year birthday----wow, almost a year already?
After we got all of her special things moved...

I think it looks GREAT!! I'm sure it was really hard to 'fall in love' with a marker! But I bet it feels good to have her marker there!!
Still can't believe that in a month we will be celebrating her birthday already!!
I agree with Jamie.........Granite Countertops Calgary
It looks very nice......you two did a good job. I have a special something in mind as well for her 1st birthday.......can't believe it's been almost a year.....thinking of her everyday. XXOO
I really like it and I like the vase too. You did a great job picking everything out - the Angel is precious. We'll have to stop by and see it the next time we are in IG. You do such a good job decorating for her - she truly had and has love all around her. I can't believe it will be a year next month. I'm sure - as always, but especially the upcoming month will be difficult. Will be praying and thinking of you extra!
~Much Love
I think it is beautiful...we will have to stop for a visit the next time we are in town to see the new stone and all of her pretty decorations! Miss her tons!!
I love the marker. It think it fits our little angel perfectly! I'm sure this was a very bittersweet process...
Sorry I couldn't see it while I was there!
I'm glad it's finally there and you have a vase to stick flowers in.
I like what you picked out for her but agree it's hard to really love something like that!
It's beautiful. <3
Looks very nice. When we started looking for Jack's we found out the meaning of the star and cross.
Thank you for sharing with us. I can imagine that is how we will feel when we finally put Lilly's marker down. I'm glad that you have a vase to put flowers in I am looking forward to that as well. Good luck in finding your first arrangement I'm sure it will be beautiful!
hugs
