Ashleigh's First Visit to See Her Daddy

 

Just when I thought nothing could be worse than burying my soul mate and love of my life, my husband of 5 months, I learned there was something far evil and far worse.... That was having to take the child he looked so forward to having and loving....to meet him at the cemetery....

I pray to God that no one who reads this page ever has to endure that HELL..

Roses from Neal's Mom in the container.... Petals from other roses adorn his grave....and a baby.... meeting her daddy... Ashleigh....

 

The champagne that Neal bought when he found out we were pregnant...that we were going to drink when Ashleigh was born... in our special 2001 glasses... 
(it was a tradition that we had started.....we had 3 sets... and now, we'll have no more....) 
on his marker.... 

My mom did the honor of toasting Ashleigh's arrival with the 2nd glass of champagne on Neal's behalf....

 

The first glass went to Neal/Daddy... 
I toasted the glasses and poured the champagne 
all around his marker...
Neal got the rest of the bottle .... Right on top of his marker.... (I must admit he had more to drink that day than he did 99% of the time when he was alive)... 

I just couldn't get in the spirit of toasting our precious little girl....next to my husband's marker...
