Happy Birthday!!

Dear Baby Seth,
It has been one very long month since you left me and all the people who love you so much. I still miss you so much and I know you are missing your mommy. I know that you are in a better place now and that someone is taking very good care of you. Today if you would not have pasted away would be your one month birthday. So I decided to celebrate your birthday by being happy that i had you for that very short amount of time.

In the past month I have had many issues in trying to deal with you not being here. The first week was horrible but I had my friends and family to help. On exactly a week after I had you, I hung out with Brandi, she is pregnant with a little girl who i am sure you would have been best friends with. Anyways Brandi made that day so special because she gave me the video of when you were 20 weeks along and that's when we found out you were a boy.

That video is so special to me because in it you looked directly at the ultrasound thing as if to say "hi, i love you." I watch it when I get really sad and it makes me so happy. I love you so much and I want you to know everyone still loves you so much. I am very proud of you for holding on as long as you did.


Happy One Month Birthday Son!!!

All my love
Your Mommy
Brianna

Brianna, what a sweet, sweet letter this was/is. I was happy to read that you are doing better. And that the ultrasound video helps lift you up when times are tough. I know that Seth loves you so much and is in a better place. He's where we all hope to someday go. Yes he is still loved by everyone! He is a VERY special little boy, especially to Adam and I. We love him so much!

Dear Seth,

You are a very special boy and have a very loving and loved spirit! We feel so blessed to have been an important part in your life. We know that you are in a very special place right now and that you carried out an important mission in gracing us with your spirit. You taught us love, hope, friendship, faith, patience, and many other underlying principles. Your life had a very, very important mission. We may not all recognize it or know what that mission was, but Brandi and I know and are grateful that your life blessed us with meeting one of our best friends, your Mommy, Brianna. Your Mommy loved you so very much. Her love for you was similar to the love your Heavenly Father had for His son. God sent his son, Jesus, to fulfill a very important mission, one that nobody else could have done. And you, Seth, also came to this earth to fill a very important mission. Our lives have all been touched by your sweet spirit. We know you are still with us, watching and waiting for us to join you one day, when the Lord sees fit to call us "home." Thank you for loving us so much to be so strong to hang on so long. We love you!!!

Dear Brianna,

This is a very sweet entry. We know that you love Seth. That is important, to always love Seth. He had a very special mission to complete. Although his life may have been short, here on earth, he waits for us in heaven. That is something to always remember. Seth came to the earth to touch our lives. His life should inspire you to want to return to live with him. His life should inspire you to make the decisions in YOUR life that will allow that to happen...to allow you to return to live with him. What an amazing experience this has all been, really!!!

We know that our Heavenly Father loves us. We know that we are children of God and that he wants us to be happy. He has a plan for each of us. Although we may not immediately know it, there is a plan for each of our lives. I strongly believe that Seth was our angel sent to remind us how we should be living our lives and what decisions we should be making in our lives that will help us return to our Father's presence.

We are grateful that his life offered us the opportunity to meet you. You are an amazing person, Brianna! You have a love that we can not even understand, a love so strong that you were able to recognize a need for your child. We are grateful that Seth's life brought us in contact with you. WE LOVE YOU for the strong young woman that you are. We are your friends and are here for you whenever you need us. You know how to get a hold of us. If there's ever anything we can do to help you find happiness in this life let us know. You are SUPPOSED to be happy. Look for the sweet, hidden, blessings that we receive each day. Your life will feel richer upon doing so. Your days will be brighter upon recognizing each special blessing. And, embrace each of those happy moments! We love you and are grateful for our friendship. THANK YOU SETH!!!
