"We walk the steps they will never take..."

So this Saturday is the Share annual Walk to Remember. It is so neat! A bunch of people who have lost babies and their families get together to celebrate our babies. We have a short little program and then we take a short walk around the park and then we write on some balloons for our babies and then the babies names are read and as your babies name is read you release your balloon. It is a good cry that is usually very much needed. I am a little nervous because My friend Lenee and I will be reading the babies names. I hope I can make it through it. Anyway, So if there is anyone out there who has had miscarriages or stillbirth or infant loss then you are more than welcome to come. And if you know someone who has lost a baby and think that they might like it then recommend it to them. There is more info about it at the Share blog:

If anyone is interested and has any questions then I would be more than happy to answer them.

And just out of curiosity, am I considered one of the friends that you will play around on your camera for? Morgan is getting blessed Sunday and Brian and I were looking around for someone that would do a couple family pictures, (not Sunday necessarily but in the next few weeks before Morgan grows out of her dress). It's okay if not, but I just thought I'd check. . .; October 8, 2008 at 9:30 PM

We lost our precious baby boy before we were able to meet him and see him open his eyes and take a breath of air. Bryce was stillborn at 37 weeks gestation, his umbilical cord, the very thing that was his lifeline, that connected me to him and gave him nourishment, was wrapped around his little tummy and took him from us. We are thankful for the days that we did have him while he was in my belly and that we knew that he was a special little spirit and was too perfect for this Earth. I miss him and think of him every single day and wish more than anything that we could be together, but that day will come and it will be the best reunion ever!
