“There are two gifts we should give our children. One is roots, the other is wings.”

For our family, this adage carries a different weight. 15 months ago, our angel got her wings. 3 months ago, we were able to give her roots. In a memorial ceremony, we created “Emmy’s Place” on our family farmstead. Now, we always have a place to go to be closer to her… and she forever has a place of her own with us.
