Day 21: Sacred Space


I don't really have what I would call a sacred space for Landon. What I do have is several spaces that are special for Landon. I think I'll talk about what will hopefully be a sacred space for Landon.

On day 9 I talked about what will be Landon's Garden. This was the very first idea we came up with together. Daddy found the memorial tree and ordered it. It came with a special memorial plaque engraved with his name. When the tree was delivered, we chose the perfect place to plant it and we talked about creating a memorial garden around his tree. We took the tree out and realized just how small it was; we feared it would not last the hot summer or the cold winter.

Landon's tree has survived 3 hot and dry summers and is about to enter its 3rd cold and snowy winter. The garden is not yet done, as of now, we have Landon's tree and his memorial plaque and a beautiful idea.
