Who buys their daughter memorial day flowers?

I do.

I am a mom that loves an angel from beyond the grave.

I am the mom walking aisles in stores looking for the flowers to place on her daughter's grave.


Walking thru stores searching for the perfect flowers for Claire, reality sets in.  There are plenty of flowers for Mom's and Dad's, Grandma's and Grandpa's, but very rarely did I see flowers labeled for a Son or Daughter.  That's because I shouldn't have a child grave to decorate on.

Darrell picked flowers for Claire that will be from him and Matthew and Katie.  He also picked a keychain fob that says #1 Sister.  Brandon and I picked a matching floral arrangement for her.  My mom and dad are in Pigeon Forge on vacation but they are looking for flowers too.

We are all going to decorate her grave next weekend.

Of all the things that are wrong with this world.......there is nothing worse than your child dying.

Nothing.
