Jewelry


     When I think of jewelry I usually think of diamonds.   I love diamonds. What girl doesn’t? But my two newest pieces of jewelry, a pin and a necklace, have no diamonds, and are worth more to me (sentimentally, of course) than the hope diamond. 

  Isn’t this pin perfect?  There are two angel boys and 1 angel girl, and their heads are made of pearls, one of June’s birthstones.  I LOVE it!  It’s so meaningful, and I love my godmother so much for picking out such a perfect gift for me. 

      Some people may think this next one is a little odd, but to me, it’s absolutely perfect.  I don’t like to leave the babies alone, so now with my new urn necklace I can always have a part of them with me at all times.  It’s a white gold heart, symbolizing the love I have for my children.

Too Beautiful For Earth

 My mom wanted to get me this as a surprise, but decided to tell me about it so I could choose the one I wanted.   In the end, after weeks of searching, I ended up going with the one she originally chose for me. I guess she does know me better than I thought!  Mom, thank you so much for this very generous gift.  It is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. I love you!

An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby's birth,

Then whispered as she closed the book,

"Too beautiful for Earth"

2 Months

     It's been 2 months and:
  • I think about Ryker, Tommy and MaryElizabeth every moment of every day.  I love them so much, and that will never change.
  • I finally don't have any more pain, except for when I sneeze. Ouch.
  • I finally hit  my pre-pregnancy weight (and because I know you're all curious but don't want to ask.....nope, no stretch marks!).
  • I still haven't ordered their urns.  I just can't bring myself to do it.
  • I still haven't received their professional pictures that the hospital took.
  • I love it when family and friends ask to see pictures of the babies.
  • I love hearing their names mentioned out loud.
