Kayln would be 26 today. In the photos below she was 16, and it’s hard to believe a decade has gone by since she was this happy, healthy young lady. I feel both blessed and broken looking at these pictures, wishing I could hold on to those days when she was enjoying life. It’s natural to focus on the pain of loss, the tough days of her illness and lose sight of all the blessings she brought to our lives. Instead I can choose to focus on the joy she brought us, and be blessed by the 20 years we had with her. Happy birthday, Kayln. You are forever in our hearts.
