When we were expecting Aspen, our seventh child, we often said that 7 was heaven! We did not realize at that time just how true those words would be. For in Aspen's short life she truly brought Heaven to our home and blessings to our family. Our family, through Aspen's life, learned of true love, true sacrifice, true service, the power of prayer, and of miracles, and the power of faith. Faith to still believe even when prayers are not answered and miracles do not always happen. It was easy to have faith while Aspen was alive. The true test of our faith came after she died.
The faith to keep believing, even though our hearts were broken, and to continue living........
This blog has been set up so that we can share her story.
So that our children who were young at the time and their memories have faded will be able to know her.
It is a chance to share the events of her life and ours. The good and bad, happy and at times very sad.
This is her story so that she may never be forgotten......
