Merry Christmas to our sweet lil' angels! We truly love and miss you! I am glad you have one another to celebrate Christmas together with Jesus this year! Even though Christmas is very different for us this year, there is some comfort knowing you two are together.
Thank you for watching over us and always being near, even when it's hard to remember I know you are not far.
This year has been an especially hard, but special Christmas! We have been given some of the sweetest gifts because of you. We will always treasure them. We also have the sweet spirit that represents you both.
It is hard not wrapping a gift to physically give you both but I love giving a gift in honor of you. This year the gift went to a special family with two angels of their own, one of them was a NICU neighbor to you Owen. This family has had a special place in our hearts for years. The mom drove down to your funeral (many hours) pregnant and with a toddler, missed the viewing, stayed for the funeral just to turn around and go back home.
Before your funeral we stopped at the post office to get the mail and we had a package (besides Abby's baby chicks!!) The package was for you Owen, it was the leg warmers I bought to get you prepared for Bentley's upcoming football season so your little legs had a chance at staying warm. When we found out this family was expecting a baby boy I knew you would want him to have them. That is how we picked the family this year.
Here is the new one.
The 'lips' (chap sticks)- we know you (Owen) loved your 'lips' and got to pick a flavor each day.
That is the gift we gave in honor of you and your memory. Dad also added some lights outside for you to see. My favorite is the wreath with the two angels.
We love you and hope you have a very Merry Christmas.
Love Mom, Dad, Bentley and Abby
