In Memory of Miles-FREE Kit!

In the digital scrapbooking world, we get a rare opportunity to meet other ladies that share our passion for creativity and preserving our memories while we do what we love. These bonds that we form are often forged by the sharing of these memories as we share the pages that we make; being able to read each other's journaling and share in the stories quickly bypasses some of the "formality" of a regular face to face relationship. We get to chat with these ladies whose stories we know, and they become part of our daily lives.

When you serve on a Creative Team or make your home in a forum, these relationships are even stronger. One of the relationships that I have had the opportunity to make is with Kellie. She is a beautiful wife and mom, with a strong faith, and a very talented artist. Kellie had shared with me that her beautiful son, Miles, had passed on to be with Jesus two years ago today (April 22 nd) with a rare childhood condition. Miles' twin brother, Mason, and his baby sister, Maddy are blessed to receive Kellie and her husband's affection and love, but Miles is missed.

Several of Kellie's friends got together and decided to make a tribute to Miles in honor of Kellie's example and friendship to us. This kit is free of charge; we just ask that you abide by the terms of service within, pay it forward by sharing something with someone YOU love and care about and post a comment here. All comments are wanted to give to Kellie to save with Miles memories. We wanted to make a way for all of us to continue to preserve those precious memories - joyful and painful - for years to come, and in our own way say how much that we love and appreciate Kellie's presence in our "digi" lives.

Kellie, we do admire and love you, and pray that each day that you wait to be with Miles again is joyful with memories of his sweetness. God bless you and your family today and in the days to come!

Chere Edwards has made this wonderful blinkie for you to sport in memory of Miles. You can right click on it at the TOP of my blog and save it to your computer. Then you can upload and use!

Thanks again and be sure to come back tomorrow for more FREE goodies and Gift Cards in memory of Miles!!!

Miles has touched my heart in so many ways today. He has made me thankful for the healthy babies I have been blessed with and also inspired to be strong like his beautiful mother. I can not imagine this type of loss but the outpouring of love I have felt today from everyone in the digital community warms my heart. This day and Miles' story will remain with me forever. What an inspiration!

This kit is just gorgeous....thank you to all of the designers who contributed...oddly enough it coordinates with the kit our Eclectic team did... how neat is that?

Katrina said...

This is such a sweet thing to do for Kellie, She has been in my thoughts and prayers today. I cant imagine losing a baby and how hard today must be for her. Its so generous what everyone is doing for her.

I can't imagine any pain so great as to lose a child...no matter what the age, how long we got to hold them, or even if we just longed to see them, and never did. There are lifetimes planned for each and every child, and it is so sad when one is cut short. I forget sometimes how special each of my children are. They're older now, and can be a pain in the rear at times, but thank you for the reminder to love them, and to be thankful for each and every day that we have together!

To all the designers who contributed to this kit, you are very thoughtful and generous. This is amazing!

To Kellie and her family,

I cannot imagine the heartache you have suffered. When I saw your layout about Miles, my eyes filled with tears and my heart broke for you, your family, and the world; all who lost this beautiful boy. I wish you and your family the best. To Miles...--Holly

I read about Miles and how you celebrate his Heaven Day, and it reminded me of these lines that were read at the service for my niece Louise who was still born, she would have been in her 20s now. It's an extract from an Ambrose Philips poem:

TIMELY blossom, Infant fair,
Fondling of a happy pair,
Every morn and every night
Their solicitous delight,
Sleeping, waking, still at ease,
Pleasing, without skill to please;
Yet abandon’d to thy will,
Yet imagining no ill,
Wearied then and glad of rest,
Like the linnet in the nest:—
Other pleasures, other cares,
Ever-busy Time prepares;

I'm sure he'll continue to live in your hearts helping you to continue to celebrate his life.

Jess said...

This is SO beautiful. It is heartwarming to see how God can bring LOVE and HOPE into such a sorrowful time. The story of Miles has already touched many lives and helped bring out the best in people. God Bless you!

Carol said...

Thank you for this beautiful kit. I read the story about Miles on the scrap page that Kellie did and I was reduced to tears. I've never held my own baby in my arms, but I have four step children. I never saw them as babies and I dearly wish I did, but I would walk over hot coals for them. I will give them an extra big hug next time I see them. And I will think of Kellie on her heaven day.

I didn't know Miles'story, because it happened when I just got to know the digiworld, but in those two years I've met lots of great people and it's warm, caring community. Proven here again. This is such a special memory, and such a difficult time. My thoughts are with you

Mary said...

Thank you so much for this beautiful memorial to Miles. I am a mother of twins, and I cannot imagine what their family has had to endure. Miles was fortunate to have such a loving and strong family to support him and cherish him in his short life, and Kellie, you were fortunate to have Miles touch your life, if only for a brief moment in time.

Stacey Jewell Stahl said...

What lovely friends you are blessed with Kellie, and what an inspiration you are. I'm sorry for your loss.

When I first heard of Miles and what you and your family have been through, it brought back memories of what my family has also been through with both my sister and myself suffering the loss of a child. What you do to remember him is such a beautiful tribute to him and I'm sure he was looking down on you today with love in his heart. You have been in my thoughts all day today and I'm so pleased that I have been able to get to know you, you are an inspiration to our community and such a sweet lady too. I hope today was a beautiful day for you :)

Kellie -- I, too, recently lost someone very close to me. One thing that I have tried very hard to do is keep the GOOD memories foremost in my mind. There is a quote by an unknown author that I have found very helpful..."Death leaves a heartache that no one can heal....Love leaves a memory that no one can steal". My thoughts and prayers are with you, I know it it is difficult and I wish there was something I could do to help ease the pain. Barbara in Central Virginia

What a delicate attention. It's beautiful and very touching.
To Kellie, here is a passage, in French, that was read at my goddaughter's funeral.
Le Petit Prince de St Exupery :
"Tu regarderas la nuit les étoiles. Mon étoile ça sera pour toi une des étoiles. Alors toutes les étoiles, tu aimeras les regarder… Elles seront toutes tes amies.
Quand tu regarderas le ciel, la nuit, puisque j'habiterai dans l'une d'elle, alors ce sera pour toi comme si riaient toutes les étoiles. Tu auras, toi, des étoiles qui savent rire!

Tu seras content de m'avoir connu, tu seras toujours mon ami, tu auras envie de rire avec moi. Et tu ouvriras parfois ta fenêtre, comme ça, pour le plaisir..."

Mason has his own special guardian to watch over him always. Huge hugs to you as you remember him more today and in the next few days. I'm sure that not a day goes by that he doesn't enter your thoughts, but I'm sure that this anniversary puts him there even more. Thank you for sharing your day with us. Hugs and prayers to you.

Lena Brandenburg said...

Miles has been on my heart since I 'met' Kellie. Not a day passes by that I don't think of him...when I go to my son's school to pick him up every afternoon, he walks out with his twin-friends Mason and Miles. Their mother decided to put them in separate classrooms so in the afternoons they are inseparable, excited, telling each other about their days; they are delightful and full of life, like all kids are...Nathan says, "bye, Mason. bye, Miles." and I think of Kellie every day. Miles is so lucky to have Kellie as a mom!

Christina, I actually used your paper in my tribute to Miles that I sent to Kellie. I'm also walking in the March of Dimes Walk America this Saturday at my alma mater. My preemie is a healthy girl now and I'm going to hug her just a little tighter!

Allison said...

First of all, this kit is AMAZING! You should all be so proud of the work you've done on it.

Kellie, I can't even being to imagine the pain you've lived through. My heart aches for all of you. And I think it's wonderful that you choose to celebrate Miles's life every year. God bless you!

What a beautiful way to celebrate your little one's life. My thoughts are with you & your family on this Heaven Day.

Stephanie said...

Kellie - you and your family were in my thoughts a lot yesterday. I had the opportunity to read your scrapbook layout and read your blog. You made me realize what I take for granted - 2 very healthy babies. I gave them some extra hugs this morning and have been thinking a lot about how I go through life just assuming things will be there for me - my family, my house - just things. Kellie - you are so strong. I can't imagine your struggles, but it makes me happy to think you celebrate a LIFE. THAT is important. Celebrate LIFE. :) Much love.

I have to beautiful and healthy boys (but I nearly lost my little boy when he is born) and I'm thankful each day when I see him! Kellie, I'm with you in this hard days and really admire you! My prayers and thoughts will be with you!
