My sweet niece had this heart made in remembrance of Rach. It is a physical reminder of love, comfort and healing. It reminds me of what a blessing Rachel was and is to me.Each part of this heart has a meaning. It symbolizes an intention or blessing:
Rose quartz: for the love we had for each other as well as peace and emotional healing.
Amethyst: for easing of grief.
Emerald: to remind me of all the beautiful memories I have of her.
A single pearl: for faith and motherhood. I WILL ALWAYS BE HER ONE AND ONLY MOTHER.
Moonstone: for all the hopes and dreams I had for her.
Silver: for perseverance and strength as I heal.
Butterfly charm: According to Irish legend, when a mother loses a child, they come to visit them in the form of a white butterfly.
and at the center of it all
Citrine: it represents Rachel, inside my heart and surrounded by all of my love,hope,dreams,faith,and lovely memories.
Is that not beautiful? I keep it where I can always see it.What better day to share it with you than on Valentines Day. And I can think of no better words to go with it than those from our poem.
I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart.
"Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love" psalm 51:1
David knew what I know now...that Gods
LOVE NEVER FAILS.
...beautiful
