Day 28- Memory


The first words I uttered when I saw her...
 "She has the most perfect little hands."

Those handprints,
(her left hand in particular as I held it the entire time she was with me)
 left forever marks on my heart.

  1. IS that an actual inprint of Claire's little hand? That's incredible. What a special memory! xo

    1. Sadly, it is not her actual print, Lacey. At the hospital the nurse was only able to get her footprints. Looking back I wish I had asked for them to try again when we saw her for the last time just before we left the hospital but it wasn't something I had thought of. The haze of losing her and leaving without her was too much and I didn't know until afterward how very much I wish I had them...

  2. A footprint is just as nice a memory, something to hold onto. I love following your blog, Jaime. Though I've never lost a baby, you sure are inspirational. I have forwarded your blog page to a few close friends in hopes to help them out through their journey. Thank you!
