earrings

One of my blog followers, Janet, makes custom jewelery and sent me earrings that she made in remembrance of my Green Beans.  It was a very generous offer, and I love what she made!  The earrings have the baby's birth stones; one garnet stone for Heidi (born on 1/31) and three amethyst stones for Lily, Paige, and Rylan (born 2/23).  You can see more of her jewelery on her website at www.ellascottjewels.etsy.com

Janet, thanks again for making these for me.  It's something to remember my babies by, and I will forever cherish them.

  1. What a beautiful gesture. That is so nice of someone to do that for you.

    I can't even imagine the grief you guys are going through. Just keep the faith and hold each other tight!!

  6. They are very nice. I think jewelry is a beautiful way to show remembrance of our babies. When my son passed I had a necklace made (link below) by this woman who handstamps jewelry with whatever words and symbols you would like--names, initial, birthdates, etc. She has some beautiful examples on her website.

  9. I just noticed that you have my favorite bible verse posted on your blog. Doesn't that just totally sum up faith as it pertains to bad things that happen?

  10. I just wanted to tell you that I'm so glad you could make a praise comment after all that you have been through. You have been on my mind so much. I can't express how sad I've been for you but I'm glad to see you getting out with your husband and doing okay. I pray God blesses you immensely in the future. Ya'll are a beautiful couple!

  11. Lauren, I just wanted you to know that there are still people praying for you. I know (or imagine) you are being alone with your grief, and I respect that, just wanted to say "Still praying." The photos in the sidebar are so heartbreakingly beautiful. (((hugs & prayers)))
