Gather your beloved family close and make a place for each one.
On Sunday, we buried Juliette Abigail Booz (Young one; Joy of the Father) in a beautiful place by the water, right here with us.
***
God opened the roses just in time for her memorial.

Losing Juliette is truly the most difficult experience of my life.
Yet, I can say with all of my heart that the Lord is my rock and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
Thank you for all of your prayers and overwhelming support. Surely we are carried along.

Oh, my. I love her name, it is truly beautiful.
Juliette Abigail: May she always be remembered, especially when strawberries are plump and juicy, Coral Bells are in bloom waiting for hummingbirds to delight in their sweetness, when the frogs are singing each night, when the Purple Clematis is making its climb, the Lilacs sprays have come and gone, when Peonies are bursting open with the help of their friendly ant friends, and when Bleeding hearts bleed with graceful beauty.
I love the thought so much that I will get to meet her someday.
We love you and Ryan, and your girls.
Kisses goodnight from across the ridge,
Jenny and Todd and AAAA
God truly prepared a beautiful resting place for your Juliette. Her name is so beautiful and fitting for her. I’m not sure exactly how Jesus talks with little ones in Heaven, but when she hears what you’ve named her, I am sure that she will know how much you love her.
Praying for your family today,
With love, Renee
Oh Laura, my heart breaks for you. I am just now reading about your loss and there are no words that could ever be right. I love you, and I will be praying for God’s continued strength, peace and comfort. I cry just reading her beautiful name, and how you did spell it Juliette…I knew you would! She was so loved in those short weeks, so wanted – names ARE powerful and meaningful and you picked the perfect one for your precious daughter. The joy of the Father is with the Father – may that carry you through.
love you, Laura–and Ryan and all the little ones. What a beautiful name! I hope having her close will help in the coming years. She will always be with you.
much love and many prayers to you and yours,
melissa

Tears are falling down my face as I think of you all and your precious little girl. When we buried out little one, it was a cold day ~ but the lightest, most beautiful snow started falling and now everytime it does that in the winter it just brings a smile to my face as I remember him ~ and the fact that we will be with him someday.
Laura, I have been praying for you and your family so much over these last few weeks. May you know with each moment the depth of our Father’s love and care for you.
Laura ~ I don’t have any special words, besides to tell you that I have been praying for your family and the healing of your broken hearts. I cannot imagine the pain. I adore her name and that you are honoring her in this special way. You are such a beautiful woman, I am honored to “know” you, and so sorry you are going through this pain.
