Yesterday, we decided to go take some flowers to the babies at the baby land at the cemetery like we did after her service last year. It's bittersweet but it makes me smile. A lady was there and she came up to me and told me "I am not sure why you are doing this but I think it's a great, thank you" she had tears in her eyes. I told her it was in honor of my daughter, I guess she was there to see her parents and a brother who only lived one day. I guess I had already put some flowers at his sight by the time she got there. I think I am going to keep this tradition going.
Julian has fun doing that, he was cleaning of the plaques up too. He released his last balloon for his sister because on Saturday he wasn't ready to let go of his smiley face balloon but once we were there he wanted and let it go, he said Happy Birthday to her again and again. It broke my heart but I love that he loves her so darn much. He was hugging and kissing her so much.

Lisette,
What a beautiful thing you did by taking flowers to the other babies at the cemetary. I know you lifted up those mommies and daddies spirits who saw a flower there. If you don't mind, that sounds like something I could do here. Noah isn't buried at the cemetary but rather we chose to cremate him. However, I have longed for quite some time to just go and be with the other babies, taking Noah with me, and to sit quietly among them.
Sami's birthday was beautiful!
That is such a beautiful idea. I love it. xo
What an absolutely meaningful idea. I love it and think you are the most amazing mom, woman, and person I know.
That is so beautiful. So very beautiful.
You did such a wonderful thing for all these angels. The baby section looked beautiful after your gift.
So beautiful and what a great idea.

That is such a great thing that you did! You are so thoughtful!
I love that you took flowers and gave them to all the babies.
That was such a nice gesture. I am sure when the parents came by they were touched to see this.
