Late Term and Child Loss

yay! my memorial garden! PIP

Ever since we moved into this home several months after we lost baby gary (2 years ago) I've been talking about this memorial garden that I wanted to put in. Well dh and I finally got it together this weekend! It took 20 cubic yard of loom, 5 tons of crushed stone and three days of strenuous labor, but it's just about done. We still need to mulch and there are a couple of little projects left to do, but I'm so happy with the way it came out! The whole big empty back section will be wild flower... I spread the seed today but it takes a few weeks to come in.

    We have that same angel. What a beautiful place to remember your babies. We are thinking of doing a garden next month for our son's due date.
