Life Celebration Service


Today we attended a Life Celebration Service at a local cemetery in honor of babies who died at or before birth.  The service was very lovely.  It begun with the minister saying a few words, followed by some music; all of which brought tears to my eyes.  Then each family was given a rose to bring up to the shared monument for all the babies who died too soon.  The ceremony concluded by families releasing balloons into the air.  It was a beautiful site to see all the colorful balloons going up in the air.  If only it was this simple, I would release a balloon to Hope every minute, with a new message and a letter of how much I miss her.
