I found this photo of Weston yesterday and I decided to post it because I thought it was a cute one. It is a little blurry. This was taken in the fall of 2007.
Today is new year’s eve. We plan to do nothing to celebrate. We just can;t celebrate this year. That’s ok. New year’s [...]
Goodbye 2008.
Returning Home
Above: Weston as a little baby, just a couple of months old – if that.
It’s been hard to return home after the trip. Coming back to the house and to our town brings back a flood of memories and hard realities that Weston is gone. There is a heaviness on our hearts when we are [...]
Our Trip
Above: Photo of a palm tree taken in Key West, Florida on Christmas Day.
It seems that since Weston died, we have had very little need to take pictures. As you might have noticed, taking photos was very much a part of our lives. I have been attempting to take more photos these past [...]
Coping Skills
As Erin and I continue to heal over our sudden loss of Weston, we can look back over the past few months and see significant progress. The day after Weston died, we begin to discuss our desire to see a grief counselor. We knew that this event was far larger than anything we have ever [...]
Christmas Spirit
Above: Photo taken in early December last year.
Erin and I began to try to get into the Christmas spirit more this week. We bought a small tree, hung our stockings, and we even tried, with little success, to find some Christmas movies on TV. One night this week we went out after dinner [...]
Only Speculate
Recently while having lunch at Panera bread, I saw a 4 year old boy that looked very much like Weston. He had some of the same mannerisms, his smile was similar, and just his over-all look reminded me of Weston. I can only speculate what Weston might have looked like and sounded like [...]
Dirt ‘n Cars
Weston and I loved to play together. One day I took Weston out to play cars in the dirt. Like all boys, he loved dirt and cars – and We had fun. As a kid, I played cars all the time and still have a big collection from my childhood. I was planning on giving [...]
Homesick
WARNING: This video is very, very sad. Please do not watch it if you feel it may make your Christmas day sad. This video expresses the way I feel.

Bo Bo Jesus
Thoughts from my heart. (Weston used the word: bo-bo for “more”)
BO BO JESUS
This Christmas I am celebrating with Jesus.
You cannot hear what I hear, nor see what I see.
No words can describe the light and music of heaven
As I worship Jesus, my Father and King.
I know you miss my smile, laugh, and life,
But I cannot [...]
Stocking Stuffer
Above: Weston, about 2 years ago to the day, Weston and I relax on the couch. Weston is actually in a stocking that his Aunt Amanda made, and we are both sporting our Santa hats. Weston was sound asleep and had learned about hats yet, but he would have loved having this one on.
As the [...]
