This weekend, Michael and I attended our second Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day Balloon Release. Last year, it was connected with a walk, but this year they just did the balloon release, which was still pretty special.
It was extremely windy, so I had Michael in charge of the balloons. We had two pink balloons for each of our daughters. They had pink, blue, and yellow available. Yellow balloons were generally for the babies who passed before the gender was known.
Of course, as they were flying away, I was just overwhelmed. So many little, loved ones were being celebrated in that park. It means so much to me to know that I have a community of families who have been there. I’m also thankful for my own community, all of you, who have been through this journey with us.
This is wonderful. It was emotional to see your picture of all of those little balloons fly into the sky. My women’s Bible study group is praying for you!
