Well let's see. It feels like forever since I've been on the blog and posted anything about our little family. Everyone knows by now that our daughter, Maysie, has died and is now watching over her parents with her father in heaven. Maysie died at 5:35pm on Sunday, April 6th, 2008. What a beautiful day to pass away-our Savior's day. She was buried on Wednesday, April 9th which believe it or not was the day I took out my endowments in the Bountiful, UT temple exactly 10 years ago in 1998. Who would have thought that I would have a moment like this one....to FINALLY marry the man of my dreams, to give birth to a beautiful daughter and to have her taken from me but thanks to the knowledge I have of the gospel and the faith I have in the love of eternal families, I know that Maysie will be with Aaron and I again someday!
As for us, we are trying to move on! Slowly but surely! Aaron and I find it hard to fill our days with things to do. I was let go from my job the day after Maysie died because of not being there so I am looking very hard for employment. Aaron and I have decided to work an extra job each this summer to save enough money for Aaron to go back to school in the fall. Now that we don't have Maysie, our whole plan has changed once again and that takes a lot of getting used to.
We can not thank everyone enough for the love, prayers and support that were said on our behalf and that are continue to be said! In the short time that Maysie was on this earth, she touched us so much! She made Aaron and I a family and even though we can not be parents to her now, we will continue to parent her memory; the memory of the most beautiful, active little "adult" (she reminded me of a little adult instead of a baby) that for 8 glorious days defied all the odds and lived! I have pictures of her funeral but chose not to post them as there may be some who it would shock but please know that Maysie felt loved while on this earth by all those surrounding her and extended from her!
Our love and thanks to all!!
Aaron, Kate and Maysie Hambrick!
