Busy Week

It has been a super busy week but I am almost done and then it is time to get a little rest before Mamie gets here. I have a wedding in Fayetteville this weekend that I am really excited about and Dr. Sellers said I was good to go. We are going to stay with our good friends Ashley and Dustin. They have moved into a new house and we are excited to see it. We are also going to see Matthew and Jayna. I can't wait to compare our bellies. :) Owen is going to be here before we know it. Maybe he will decide to come this weekend so we can see him. I am so excited for them. I know Jayna is getting a little nervous but I know she is going to do great. Mamie, we know you and Owen are going to be great friends. We talk almost every day about you two. :) We just can't wait to see your sweet faces. - Sarah

And 1 in every 102 newborns die before the age of 28 days old? Now, a year after losing Mamie, I have started Mamie's Poppy Plates, my organization providing keepsakes for parents who are not able to take their babies home from the hospital. Because handprints and footprints are something that we cherish as parents of children in Heaven or here on this earth, I wanted to find a beautiful way to preserve such a precious reminder of our babies. Your donation of $13 will provide a plate to bereaved families who are delivering at St. Vincent Hospital. Their baby’s birth stats, hand and footprints will be stampe...

Please Pray!

Today has been a very emotional day. I got a text around 10am from NILMDTS that a baby that was delivered at 38 weeks was about to pass. I froze when I saw the text. It made me so sick to think of what that family was going through. The whole day my head has been in the clouds thinking of this family. Why does this have to happen? Just a little while ago Taylor and I were snuggled up on the couch having a glass of wine and watching tv when I got a call from one of my favorite wedding clients from a few years back. She began crying as she told me her cousin went in for her 38 week check up today and they could not find the heartbeat...... I immediately began having flash backs of me sitting in the ultrasound room as they told me Mamie had died. What is going on??? I just want to scream right now! My client wanted to know if I would be willing to photograph their precious baby once he was delivered. That was a question I didn't have to think about. I told her...
