Every once in awhile we still have a hard day and wonder why you had to leave us so early.
Knowing you are okay makes us happy. We only want you to be happy.
We miss you, but our heartache has lessened over the years. That doesn't mean we don't love you just as much. It just means that our hearts are healing.
We can finally think about you and celebrate your short life and appreciate the experiences with joy instead of tears.
This last 6 months with your baby brother have been hard on us in a way. As we watch him go through stages and milestones, we wonder what it would have been like to watch you grow and learn. We wonder if you would laugh and giggle when we make silly faces at you or tickle your back. If you would be a petite little girl and actually fit into your 6 month clothes when you were 6 months old. If you would make squirmy faces when we give you vitamins. If you would be a snuggly baby and let your mom give you hugs and kisses, unlike your brother.

Today on this special day, we are going to take your little brother to the temple to be sealed to our eternal family. What an amazing day to think of you and to celebrate both of our beautiful children.
We love you and can't wait to be with you again.
Love,
Mom, Dad and Gage
p.s. You have the cutest baby brother ever. I can't wait to see you together someday. He is lucky to have a beautiful big sister like you.

Oh Kamie...I'm sure she'll be there today to witness and participate in your special day! Can't wait to see the pictures and hear the details!
Beautiful letter. I'll be thinking of you today!
Hannah is so beautiful. I've been thinking a lot about her. She's watching over you and I'm positive you'll feel her spirit there with you in the temple today. Enjoy today, let the joy and peace of it wash over you. It's a special day to celebrate both Hannah's time on Earth and to have Gage join your family for eternity. What a beautiful family you have, my friend.
What a special day for all of you.. We all miss Hannah and also wonder how different our lives would be today if things would have went differently. At least we know that we will all be together again and can enjoy her sweet spirit then..
We are so very happy for your family and the way things have gone the last 7 months...
Life can be tough, but then these things show us how wonderful and fulfilling life really is!
Love you guys,
Dad
Brandon warned me I shouldn't read this post until after we got back from the temple, but I wanted to anyway.
So much for doing my make-up :)
We think about Hannah all the time, even know the kids have never meet her they talk about her like they have, and CamRee thinks its an extra special thing to share a birthday with her. We definitely are blessed with the knowledge of the gospel knowing we can be together forever. I can't wait to see you and your little family all together in heaven and see the joy on your faces. You have a very special angel watching over you all for sure. Gage has been such a blessing and heavenly father chose the most wonderful birthmom ever to help him make his way to Earth to join your family for Eternity. I know Hannah will be there with you today, what an wonderful feeling & experience to be able to go to the temple and feel so close to her, I am sure Gage's sweet little spirit will be so close to the vail and will have stories to tell of this wonderful day, if we could only understand him.
We love you guys so much and are so happy for you! Heavenly father has a plan if we just have faith and be patient, we are always blessed when the time is right for everyone! Gage is the perfect example.
that was such a sweet post. thank you for sharing. i think it is so special that you will be able to share this day with Hannah by being able to go to the temple to have Gage sealed to. I'm sure that she will be present to share in this special day with you as well.
i got chills reading this.
you two are strong parents.
what a special day to have gage seals to the three of you.
love you guys! we were thinking of sweet Hannah today. I felt her in the temple today so I know she was there. now today will always be a special day to celebrate your two precious children!
This letter made me both sad and happy at the same time. What an amazing thing that you could be sealed to Gage on your daughter's birthday - I can't think of a better way to spend that day. You are amazing.
