Where's Garrett?
I get this question a lot from kids in the neighborhood. Often they will come over to play and in the middle of doing something come over and ask me, "Where's Garrett?". Then they stop and say "Oh, yeah, I forgot." .
It happens to me all the time too-I forget! I go in to wake up 'the boys'...and there's only Dallin sleeping in the bunk beds. I set the table for dinner and put a plate out for Garrett. I was just thinking about Halloween and what could 'the boys' be? There is always that little second before I remember.
I'm glad the kids in our neighborhood still remember him. I love that they will talk about him and share stories about him and imagine what he would be doing and talk about what kinds of things he liked to do.
I know exactly where Garrett is; he's here in our hearts and our memories until we are together forever.

How tender and amazing! It makes me cry every time I read your post about this dear little guy. It makes me realize how far he reached into our hearts during his short little life. We are all blessed by him and by you sharing your thoughts. xoxoxo
