Holding Him.

A few weeks before Caleb passed away Mitchell and Matthew spent an afternoon holding him.  
They just couldn't get enough. 
I stood in the corner with tears streaming down my face as I quietly took pictures of them loving their brother...









These are the moments when I am sure I know what Heaven feels like.

So precious, what beautiful memories!

Kel said...

Beautiful! They are a very lucky family of brothers.

Bridgette keeps talking about Caleb, by the way. Well, "talking"... in her way. Despite having so few words, she even called him by name today. It's been very touching.

Jennie said...

Beautiful. I'm so glad you have those sweet pictures. I love all of them, but especially the one of his hand and the last two of their sweet faces. Such tender feeling for their brother.

That is so sweet. You are such an amazing person.

Jenny said...

Oh these are so beautiful. I'm so glad you have those pictures. I've thought about your boys a lot the past couple weeks, and moreso the past couple days as the busy-ness of everything may have slowed down. I often think about the love and bond that is so strong between each member in your family...and those mature, darling, and senstive boys. I think about what memories they'll have years down the road and it makes me so happy to think of the memories they'll have...all good and precious moments like these, and of course pictures always help keep memories more clear and fresh. What incredible little boys you have. All of them. I love you!
