July 24, 2008 - Thursday afternoon
A few hours after the Memorial service, we held a private Graveside service with just our family members. We sang "I Am a Child of God." Marc dedicated the grave, blessing it to be a place of inspiration and comfort to all who visit. Again, it was a beautiful moment, shared together with our families.

What a beautiful service so full of love.
Tears are just streaming down my face as I read this. What a beautiful way to remember your girls. Thank you for sharing something SO personal with all of us. I think I tell you in every comment that I make, but you guys are so amazing. You inspire me to be better.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. My son is sitting on my lap right now wondering why I'm bawling my eyes out. Your strength in this time of grief is an inspiration to us all.
I also want to thank you for sharing such a sweet and personal day with us. I remember dressing my mother when she died and how bittersweet it was, but even so I cannot imagine how it would feel to dress your sweet little ones. While I don't always comment, I do read and always come away with an uplifting perspective on how to approach life. Thank your for your inspirational posts throughout this painful time.
I feel so inadequate to comment on anything that you have posted Megan. You amaze me. The hope that radiates through your thoughts and feelings is amazing even though the pain is there. A pillar of strength you and Marc are. I pray with all that I have that Heavenly Father carries you gently with His loving hands and heals your heart as needed. Your sweet angel girls are true miracles. What a beautiful tribute the two of you gave to them in honor of their short mortal journey. Let yourself feel your emotions my friend. You hit the nail on the head when you said the harder I tried to not feel the more I felt. Let yourself feel as they come. There is nothing you can do to stop yourself from feeling. I feel so blessed to have examples of faith like you and Marc in my life. Thank you for all that you have taught me.
