A better day

I woke up feeling much better emotionally today. Thank you for all of your sweet notes and prayers. I felt a little off. I was crampy and nauseated so I decided to lay low in the bed for the morning while Taylor was off golfing. My mom showed up which was probably a good thing and got me out of bed. We went through this HUGE tub of clothes Brit and Becky had sent over. Man, is Burke set on the threads. Everything is pretty much organized and we made a list of things I don't have. Mom wanted to go ahead and pack my hospital bag and put the car seat in the car but I just can't do it. I remember so well doing that when I was pregnant with Mamie and I am just scared. I think we might just leave the car seat out in his room and when the time comes throw my stuff together for the hospital. I did pull out a few things for Burke for the hospital though.
It was really nice spending the afternoon with my mom just visiting and not sitting here by myself letting my mind wonder too much. Now I am going to relax on the couch and eat some pizza that Taylor picked up.

Introducing Mamie's Poppy Plates

As you all know, I am Mamie's mom, and Mamie was my first child. I was pregnant with her from October 2008 to June 25th, 2009 when she was born a sleeping angel (stillborn) two and a half weeks before her due date. Stillbirth and infant death are realities that too many parents face even today. Did you know that each year 1 in 115 babies delivered is stillborn? 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...

VBS

Burke and Winnie just finished their first Vacation Bible School and they had a blast.  I did as well :)  I got to help in Burkes class which is always really interesting.  There were about 20 3yr olds in there so it was WILD :)  It was a fun 3 days of learning about how God is our light.  We sang "This little light of mine" everyday and Winnie is trying so hard to sing it.  She walks around the house with her little pointer finger up mumbling.  I love it. - Sarah Winnie eating the stickers instead of putting them on her art piece :)
