Loved beyond Words: "Our photographer was a gentle, wizened soul named Paul. He had a thin, stooped figure, used a soft voice, and had pained eyes that spoke of deep loss. I have no idea what his story is. I have no idea why he chooses to spend his time waking up at daybreak to photograph the most heartbreaking moment in two people’s lives. Did he lose a grandson? A niece? A nephew? What brought him to this calling?" ⠀

This one took much longer to write and even longer to post. I'm not sure why I had to work up so much courage. Sharing Wyatt has been hard for me, but I know his story is meant to be heard. Wyatt's story part 3 can be found in the link in my bio.

Nick, Ellie and I went on a lovely walk with Julian’s mommy and daddy, Sunshine and Richard, to honor Julian and Luke and all the babies who are so dearly loved and missed.

A few sweet angel babies I sent out for free to fellow miscarriage mamas earlier this week. .
.
.Mother’s Day can be an especially difficult day for those who have lost babies or children. As a loss mama myself, I know that letting your friend or family member know that you are thinking of them and remember their baby or babies makes a huge difference. ♥️
.
.
I will be offering a special collection with a limited number of extra-detailed custom Mother’s Day dolls (hospital newborn mom, breastfeeding mama, babywearing mama, mommy and me, formal newborn mama as well as dolls for loss mamas). I have been sharing sample photos throughout the week and plan to open up for a limited number of custom orders Sunday or Monday once I close for custom Easter/Passover orders. .
.
.However, a few listings for these little angel babies are already up in my Etsy shop — I donate a few to other loss moms every month in honor of my own 3 miscarriages and also provide an opportunity for others to donate additional dolls in honor or in memory of someone, so take a look if that’s something you are interested in. I can also customize any other doll for a loss mama — swipe to see a few recent or in progress samples of moms holding babies — or message me to discuss whatever you might have in mind. ✨✨.

So so thankful. @songbirdwpg is a volunteer photographer for @nowilaymedowntosleep . I'm so grateful I was drawn to her on the list of names. She was supportive, helpful and most importantly captured the very short time we had with our sweet Wyatt.

Sad day over here. My uncle passed away this morning. He was an artist, a surfer, the drummer in a band, and had great sense of humor. Just a really awesome guy. I am so sad I won’t have more time with him. .
.
.I have a backlog of photos of recent projects to share but don’t have the energy to share them. This set feels right though. It’s a custom set of angel babies I donated to a fellow repeat miscarriage mama. Remembering Kai, Coleman, Riley, Noah, Jane and of course Robert ❤️

This week hurts. You should be 5 months old, safe and in my arms. A year ago this week we found out you were growing in my tummy and every single aspect of my life changed. I was no longer controlling my blood sugars for me- but for you. I was no longer drinking lots of green juices for me- but for you. I avoided anything and everything that MIGHT hurt you and took in every single vitamin and nutrient I could. I did everything to keep you safe, healthy and growing in my tummy. There is not a single thing I could have done different for you to be here today, but it still hurts. 5 months. And through so much genetic testing, we still don't have answers.
