Jizo statue to protect the souls of departed babies (Lola, my dog, in the background)

Another view of the garden with Boo (kitty). Japenese Maple, shells I collected, Lilies and ornamental grass.

Sally Ann was born and died on July 26th, 2008.
This is the story of my journey to motherhood that began 6 years ago. It is my opportunity to share what I have learned and felt through fertility treatments, baby loss, and my second pregnancy...on I go towards motherhood. One of the greatest qualities I have gained is resilience. Resilience:speedy recovery from problems; the ability to recover quickly from setbacks, adversity, or misfortune; elasticity; the ability to spring back quickly into shape after being bent, stretched, or compressed.

You are both in my thoughts.
Beautiful - I love the combination of the long grasses and the delicate maple leaves, the red and the green.
The first year, a whole year. I'll be thinking of you, dear.
What a beautiful memorial.
