This blog post is way, way, way overdue....so in an open apology to the amazing, Ter, I must say that what she does and provides to many bereaved families around the world is so sweet. Please find the story about Patch (Patches little brother) here. I was blessed to have Ter find a little brother for the missing Patches right around the time of Kennedy's heaven date. When he arrived, I was just thrilled that he had finally arrived (safely) and I would now have some time to make memories with him. Little did I realize that time would fly by....and over a month later, I would finally have time to write about his visit. Patch came at a busy time for me, but I was honored to have him first and also receive the sweet understanding of Ter in how long it took me to send him on his way and write about his journey.
In my house, Patch found his way to many special places where Kennedy's presence is felt and recognized. Here are a couple of shots of him at those specific spots.

Patch then made his way to Kennedy's other sacred spot here in Madison. The place where she sleeps and plays with all of her other angel friends. This is the place where her soul is at peace. And a place where I find peace too.
As a final added bonus, Patch had one final place to take a picture at before he was sent on his way to another special family. This picture really sums up another very important part of my life that has been gaining some closure and healing, especially without having my little girl here on Earth with me. It also explains how busy I have been.... (not an excuse, just an explanation).

What an absolute privilege it was to have Patch come visit during this extra special time in my life. It had been a long wait for him (including a missing bear search), but I loved his time with me and know he will help heal the hearts of many on his journey. Thank you again, Ter, for creating such a beautiful idea that will touch many lives the way it touched mine. ((hugs))
