Craziness

I'm sorry that its been so long since I posted. Things have been crazy around here lately. My parents are moving, my husband is working odd hours and my allergies are in overdrive. I had every intention of posting something for Mother's Day but time just slipped away from me. So, Happy belated Mother's Day to everyone out there, whether your children are with you or with Jesus.

A Letter To Heaven

One of the rememberance ideas that we've used for our children is sending a "letter to heaven". You write a letter to your baby(ies) and then roll it up like a scroll. Then you take a helium balloon and tie the end string around the letter. Then you let it go wherever you like. Its a very sweet way to talk to your child, whether you have a gravesite or not. Beware though, we had to use a very small, thin piece of paper or else the balloon wouldn't lift it. Maybe there are different strengths of helium, I'm not sure. Just try out a few different types of paper first until you find one that works for you. I hope you'll try this idea. If anyone else wants to share something they've done, please do so.
