It's been a rough couple of days...

Tuesday morning @ 5:50 AM I dropped this one off to leave for her first year at girls camp.

She was nervous but excited. I know she will have a great time she has amazing leaders up there.

Abby cried and worried and missed her before she even left.

I may or may not have cried a little too.

Today it has been 6 years since Colton was born.

His birthday is still hard for me.

There are no milestones for me to record or recognize.

There are no little boys toys scattered around my house.

From the outside looking in I am a Mom of 4 beautiful girls.

"So you just have all girls" is a question I dread.

The easy answer "Yep, just the four girls at home."

As I catch myself feeling sorry for myself or getting grumpy with my girls

 I try to step back and recognize the blessing of all my girls.

We went to the Summer Movie this morning.

As the day wore one I found myself out of patience

 so I loaded the girls up and we headed to the Treehouse Museum.

This has to be one of the most uninteresting horse sculptures in Ogden.

One Little,  Two Little, Three Little Indians

Picked up some Pizzeria Pizza and Salad for dinner then ran to get stuff ready for the balloon launch.

We are always surrounded by family to remember our Little Buddy.

Abby helped the kids and grown ups make some tissue paper flowers while we waited for the send off.

Lindley and Hayley talk about Colton all the time.

Lindley has some pretty interesting stories about how Colton went to Heaven.

I'm gonna have to keep an eye out for that one.

One of my favorite things she has said is

"Heavenly Father is going to give Colton back to us because He's a good guy".

The wind was crazy and seemed to pick up as the time neared.

Happy Birthday Little Buddy!

Thanks for The Little While.

We love you and miss you everyday.

This is the first time the balloons headed South.

We were so grateful for the wind cooling down the heat.

Beautiful Sunset @ Colton's Place.
