Late Term and Child Loss

Conner and Benjamin's first birthday is this Saturday. I am anxiously awaiting it and I am not sure how I feel about it. I keep getting flashbacks on what it was like to say hello to them, say goodbye, and leave the hospital without my babies. I know so many of us have gone through this major milestone before and many are close to their baby's first birthday, so I know that many of you know what I am talking about.
RAOK for my twins' first birthday

I'm not sure if this is okay to ask about or post here, so let me know if this is not okay.
My husband and I have chosen to see our boys as the biggest blessings of our lives. Their birthday, also the day they went to heaven, was easily the best and worst day we have ever had. But I do not want their legacy to be pain and sadness, so we are doing Random Acts of Kindness in their names this weekend.
If anyone would like to participate, I would be forever grateful to you. I have cards that can be emailed as well if you are interested. There is also more information here on my blog: https://xobenjaminandconnerxo.blogspot.com/2014/12/random-acts-of-kindness-for-conner-and.html. Thank you to everyone helping us celebrate our boys' lives

CheesyPeas Yep, that is the card! If you want, I have pdf copies of it that I can email you and I have been sending a list of RAOK examples for people who want them as well. Thank you for doing this
We have an appointment at our clinic on Saturday, but I'm going to print a card from your blog today and try to do this at some point if we get out again.
