Remembering Riggs

Many of you have probably seen your friends changing their profile pictures to the picture above or heard someone mention Riggs this past week. I can never imagine the pain that the Farmer family is going though. I wanted to reach out and help our friends during this difficult time. I found that by sharing my talent in jewelry was the best way that Stu and I could help out and cherish the memory of Riggs.

The Riggs Bracelet is now available. Adults bracelets have three mouse heads ands the kids bracelets have one mouse head and 2 sets of 3 pearls.

This was a post that Caroline Farmer left earlier this week that I would like to share with you. -"Everyone says "what can we do?" There is nothing. Our communities have engulfed us in love and support and prayer and that is more than we could ask for at this... time.
Riggs Farmer was a precious little boy with blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. He had a contagious laugh. He had a precious birthmark on his calf. He didn't like wearing shoes and was struggling with sippy cups. He danced everyday to the Jake and The never land pirates theme song. He loved water - the ocean, the hose, mud puddles. He loved taking the cover off of the air vent. He liked climbing in the refrigerator. He loved to eat with his little hands and feed his dogs from his high chair. He loved his friends at the CDC. He loved taking everything out of a bag. He liked to beat on the washing machine while it ran. He crawled really fast. He liked dog kisses. He loved laying in the bed between his parents and laughing. He did not like riding in his car seat for a long time but would grab anything in reach and throw it as far as he could. He loved taking a bath. He loved opening and shutting doors. When he got excited, he would clap as hard as he could. If his dogs were outside, he would sit at the door and bang the blinds against the glass. He thought wearing glasses was hilarious - sunglasses or his granddad a reading glasses. He liked crawling in to his parents closet - a no no room. He liked for me to blow him with the hair dryer. He liked turning the page of books - before I could finish reading the page. He liked turning the wheel to the golf cart and his toy truck. He liked magnets. He would light up when someone he loved walked in a room. He loved his uncle who acted like a kid with him.
For him, we ask you that you change your profile picture this week to this graphic so that his love can be seen around the world through social media. He made an impact on this world in less than 13 months.
This graphic is perfect, we were teaching Riggs to love Jesus, Clemson University, and all things Disney. He had shown love for his animals since he was a few days old.
God bless you, my son. Run free with Jesus and big mama (my mom). Please ask Jesus to give your parents strength to go on this earth without you, your joy, and love. You gave me more than I could have ever imagined. I love you. I love you to the moon. I love you farther than Buzz can fly his spaceship. You did everything right. You made Jesus, Big Mama, and Mickey Mouse happy. You are perfection. "-
