First Angelversary

The last few days have felt like the worst countdown of my life. I have counted how many days and hours we had left with Archer last year. It just feels so painful knowing he has been gone for so long.

Today marks one year. It’s the last day of all the firsts without him. We start all the ‘seconds’ without him until his next angelversary.

The one thought that has brought us peace and joy is thinking about how he spends his time in heaven, especially today. My heart and gut tell me that Archer has taken on the job of greeting everyone as they come through heaven’s gate, but he takes extra time showing all the children around heaven when they arrive.

We miss Archer more than words can describe. Our hearts are so heavy. There is so much I have to say to Archer and how much I love and miss him. However, I will keep this blog short today because I am overwhelmed and cannot even get the right words out. One day, I will share more about today, but I’m surviving and just trying to make it through today.

Know that we are spending time with our family celebrating Archer’s life and the blessing he is. Prayers for our whole family are appreciated as we all grieve.

Thank you Bo’s Heavenly Clubhouse for the beautiful graphic to remember Archer Floyd.

  1. The one thing that brought me peace when baby (blastoise) Clark passed before we got to meet them was knowing they had Archer there to welcome them to Heaven and show them the love that we would have shown here on earth. Everyday I’m thinking about Archer and the beautiful little boy he is and forever will be.

  2. Oh what a beautiful way to think of him showing other kids around when arrive in heaven… God Bless you both!

  3. I think of how precious it is that Archers parents have the Vision of seeing their son meeting and greeting so many in Heaven. He’ll get to hear all the stories we heard as children and many more. He doesn’t need a thing, he’s not hungry and he’s as smart as a whip!!! I think, in your heart of hearts, you can be at peace knowing you both cared for him and loved him a lifetimes worth. You can look back and see in his eyes he’s saying THANK YOUMama And Daddy!!!❤️❤️
    Love you so much Britt and Theo
