Here are the photos of the Book & the Birthday Invitation that I put together. I have to thank Jessi for letting me have creative control of this project. She put her complete faith and trust in me that I would approach every detail with great love & care.
So happy to have been a part of it!
This image holds very special meaning for Jessi & Leah. Jessi's uncle passed several months ago and Jessi & her aunt had an encounter with a Butterfly the day he passed.
The day her uncle passed away the nurse came to check on him and the family. As she was leaving, Jessi & her Aunt Shawn walked her out and a butterfly was flying around and brushed up against them as they walked up the stairs The nurse told her aunt Shawn about an email she had just read about a guy wanting proof that God existed. The guy would yell out to the Lord and God would give him discrete signs; for example the man said "if you really exist then reach out and touch me" and a butterfly brushed his cheek but the man ignored it. Later on when Jessi's cousins, Nick and Emily, got home from school Uncle Larry started to decline fast and they were all gathered around his bed. They looked out his bedroom window and there were about 50 butterflies outside by the pond next to the pool. Shortly after they saw the butterflies, Larry took his last breath only to look out the window and find all the butterflies had disappeared. Larry passed away November 4 and maybe some foreshadowing is that Leah was a butterfly for Halloween. Jessi had originally bought her another costume and then took it back for the butterfly!
R.I.P Uncle Larry
You are loved dearly and missed immensely!
