The day of forever

Once there was this little girl who had the same wish every other child have; to have their whole family gathered on their birthday.

When the coffin was carried to the same grave that the girls grandmother was buried, all were given a white rose. The coffin looked so fantastic, all covered in flowers and goodbye notes. The girl was one of the first that let her rose descend on the coffin after it had been lowered into the grave.



It didn?t rain that day, but in one way it did. The birthday girl almost cried...
