1st Birthday

I'm not really in the mood to write, but I wanted to share my day and a few pictures. Today we went to the cemetery and decorated Dayton's place for his birthday tomorrow. I can't believe that in just a little over 4 hours my baby will be 1 year old. I remember being in the hospital bed at this exact time last year hoping and praying that everything was OK. I wish he was here so we could throw him a big 1st birthday party, but I'm positive he is having the biggest and best 1st birthday in Heaven.
These are Dayton's birthday decorations!
And Davin wouldn't take a picture by himself, so his cousins Cason and Blair got in the picture with him. Davin picked out the alligator for Dayton, but wanted one too so they could have matching toys.
And this is my Origami Owl locket that my sisters bought for me in remembrance of Dayton. It's perfect, and I love it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAYTON! MOMMY, DADDY AND DAVIN LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH!

      You, Jason and Davin have been in my thoughts and prayers all day. I have been praying God gives y'all the strength to push through without too much heartache. I know Dayton is having the greatest 1st birthday party in Heaven. Love y'all.

    The necklace is gorgeous. It is amazing that it has already been a whole year. I know you miss him every day but I imagine getting through this time of year has got to be the hardest. I hope in some way getting through these 'firsts' will help ease things a bit for you. I hate that I live so far away cause I'd just like to give you a big ole hug. I send my love to you guys and wish a happy heavenly birthday to little Dayton!

    So sorry I am just now checking all of these comments! I have dramatically slacked on my blog lately.... Thanks Jessica and I wish you lived closer too! I would love to get together with you! And your "You Sexy Thang" name had me rolling! :)
    Jeana Huber I am about to find you on Facebook and message you as well, but my sister ordered the white ribbon from Origami Owl and then used some nail polish decorating pens that have the real thing brushes and painted it with the blue and pink :) I have gotten lots of feedback and interest on that little ribbon!

    Jessica I found your necklace online and I was wondering where your sisters got the ribbon from? Was it from origami owl or someone else?
