We met with the funeral home on Saturday afternoon, not even 12 hours after Henry passed. It was just as surreal this time to walk in there, with the intention of making funeral arrangements for our baby boy. Unfortunately, we already knew what to expect, having done the same thing just 18 months ago for Brady. Today, we continued working through details for the weekend. Brady is buried at Evergreen Memorial Park Cemetery, and that is where we wanted Henry to go as well. Since Brady was buried, five or six more babies have joined Babyland. Evergreen was kind enough to let us have the plot directly in front of Brady, rather than the next open plot down the current row.
Knowing what to expect doesn't make this process easier. It's more like a bad sense of deja vu. I try to imagine our two boys romping around the heavens, playing together and getting into trouble. It is a comforting thought, but selfishly I'd much rather have them both doing that here. One day we will all be united, and I can once again hold these precious angels in my arms.
