4 Months

Today Mamie would be 4mths old. I can't believe it has already been 4 months. It seems just like yesterday. It hasn't been the best day for me but the beautiful weather sure has helped. Taylor and I just got back from visiting Mamie's grave. We were so surprised when we arrived and someone had put a pumpkin there for her. I burst into tears... how speical to know that there are still so many thinking about our sweet baby girl. I have been thinking about how everyone has been taking their kids to the pumpkin patch and how we would be doing that if she was with us. Whoever brought her that pumpkin we want to thank you so much. It means the world to us.

We love you Mamie and miss you so very much.

    We just had Joshua's 5th Birthday it is so hard to imagine. My little man would have been starting school soon and that IS hard to beleive. There will be days when you thank the lord for all of these sad days. You will NEVER change these events that have taken place, but it is all in his grand plan and timing. I think of all the mom's like us who long for that one more moment with our angels. We felt them move and heard their heart beats. They were and are and always will be a large part of out lives. I am so glad I had the chance to be Joshua's mom. Though nothing evern "makes it better" be glad and rejoice in the lord for the moments you had with her when you were one.
    My 3 year old just told me she was a beautiful angel baby like his bubba!

    Sarah ~ My heart is so heavy for you. I am so sad we don't have our precious baby girls. Mamie is beautiful!

    I have just been reading over your blog, and I have felt the same exact feelings. I love that you are able to go into Mamie's nursery. It helps me to be in Reese's nursery, too.

    Sarah, I wish I could make your pain go away because I know how terrible it is. I pray you have a peaceful night and that GOD's new mercies carry you tomorrow.

Baby Burke- Please Pray

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah

Burke is 3!!!!!

Okay I have decided that time is going by way too fast.  Burke just turned 3 the beginning of June!  I can not believe it.  I feel like just yesterday I was in the hospital having the little guy!  We had a fun small family party and he is loving some super hero's right now so that was the theme :)  Silas really wanted to jump out when he walked in and yell surprise so that is what we did :)  Burke is super shy and he really wasn't a fan of it all.  Pibby and Pops got him his first bike and it is SO cute.   I picked up a balloon for all the kids and one special spider man one for Boo.  He has always loved balloons.  He said the sweetest thing....... he wanted to let his balloons go up to Mamie so she would know that it was his birthday.  I couldn't believe he let his special Spider Man one go.  It made me want to cry.  She should be here with us.  ANYWAYS, it was a fun day and I got some pictures of course and a few videos.  Happy 3rd Birthday Burkie BOO!  We love you so so

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
