Our Rainbow Bridge Memorial Garden Is Complete

 

Shortly after our sweet Sophie made her journey over the rainbow bridge, we made the decision to convert the left side of our garage into a beautiful Rainbow Bridge Memorial Garden. This is the before photo. 

Over the past few weeks, we have been working on pieces for the Rainbow Bridge Memorial Garden. It has not been easy. It has been a deluge of emotions all the way around

But. 

We did it. 

Here is the after photo.

As quoted from my personal Facebook page...

"Our Rainbow Bridge Memorial Garden is complete. For now. Here is the before and after. Unfortunately, it was too early to buy hanging flowers. And, the Summer flowers won't pop up and bloom for at least another month. However. We sprinkled in some of the daffodils from our yard. Added solar lights. Lots of smiles. And tears."

I totally need to give Lisa a shout-out. 

She did all of the outside work.

I was on the back porch. 

A steady stream of tears ran down my face. 

This entire process was beyond emotionally hard.

And, I know, in time, when our kids make that journey over the Rainbow Bridge, it will be just as hard. 

For now. 

We are embracing the beauty of what will grow over time.
