This is a statue of an angel in the cemetery where my first baby is buried. I like that she’s smiling. Death is heartbreaking but it’s not only sad. I am also filled with hope when I think about my son. He is alive and happy and we can be an eternal family. It has always been such a comfort to know that.

  1. I love that this image was submitted. I like that it isn’t at first glance a Mormon image, and yet Kirsten finds it to be one, and by tying in the smiling face with our eternal families, she makes it so for us. Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

  2. I’m very sorry for your loss. In your picture, I feel both your pain and hope.
