A Glimpse of HEAVEN.....

Grayer Eero Welker

Born August 17, 2009
7lbs 1oz 20inches

What an amazing feeling it is to hear your new born baby's first cry!!! What an even more amazing feeling it is to be able to hold and kiss his sweet innocent face. The spirit they bring with them when they come into this world is completely priceless! I couldn't help but think about how thin the veil really is and how this innocent child is truly just a glimpse of heaven, so freshly leaving the presence of our loving Heavenly Father and Dear ones that have passed on. What a blessing it is to be trusted with something so tender and sweet! There is nothing more I would rather do than sit and hold him all day, and all night long. If only he could talk, what could we learn.

My dear friend met us at home to capture a few still moments of pure Bliss!!!

These are just a few, and how sweet they are. Priceless!!!

The day before....a day I'll always remember


I let my lovely niece talk me into letting her capture the memories of my last pregnancy...to be honest, I am SOO glad I did. I have to admit it was a little emotional. We Paavola's all have the same blood running thru us....We cry over nothing at all. Thanks to Holli, we all ended up with tears! The end of everything is sad to me, last day of school, last child....

I guess I will just need to make sure I don't get lost in the rat race called life and miss it!
