I love this. I can’t express how much I love this for you–and for all of us reading this. Sometimes the beauty of people stuns and awes me. I want to meet James–to know this person who has that kind of heart. I am crying reading this–tears for the kindess that surrounds you. Love to you Katie–and to James!

Wow. I just cried at work.. Good thing I have tall cube walls.

Bravo James, you are a good person to do this for them.

Katie, for what’s it’s worth.. You’re story and what we’ve all experienced with you since Henry’s passing has definitely made me a better husband, parent, brother, uncle, and son.

I still pray for you and your family daily that God holds your hands and guides you through all of this..

I envy you for your friends. Mine ran away from me when I lost my baby, not knowing what to say and not realizing they mostly had to listen.

I thank you for your post. In a world that seems a bit colder each year, stories of such deep friendship and support should inspire people to similar things.

Proof that there are some amazing people in the world.

That is one of the most thoughtful things i have ever seen and i am sure you will cherish it forever. This gift you got enforces the true goodness of people and the human spirit.

You know, people can suck sometimes and then somebody does something as imaginative and thoughtful as this and it gives me hope that we don’t live in such a horrible world afterall. James, you rock.

I have been reading your posts, and have cried over many of them, as the mother of a Henry. This post made me sob, out loud, at work. My Henry is eight, and we have a wall just like this in our little house where we live together after my divorce from his father. I ache for you, Katie. My Henry and I send you love, and peace, and faith.

Also a Stumbler. That is the sweetest and saddest thing I’ve ever seen. And a precious gift – both being a mother to Henry for 18 short years, and the framed measurements.
