Loving On Each Other

This post will be full simply of photos of family I've taken the last three days. This is for my parents and any other family who could not be here for Lorien's funeral. We held babies a lot, and we enjoyed the boys running around, and we loved being together.

We returned home to a huge table full of flowers. So much love and support were poured on the family.
We have cooked no food for ourselves in many days because their church has brought food for all the meals for all extended family, including a meal for all who wanted to stay and eat after the graveside service.
We must first suffer and grieve before we can be comforted.
We must first die before we can be resurrected.
