An alternative way to remember...

BW, that sounds just beautiful

I did the plant thing but sadly, I don't have a green thumb either and after managing to keep it alive for over 12 months, the frost got to it. Thankfully, I haven't found this too distressing, just rolled my eyes and thought 'typical'! LOL.

For me, I'm more a tattoo kinda gal have it all planned out and waiting till I finish b'feeding to have it done, but last October on the anniversary of our EDD I went and brought the Pandora angel charm. Not sure if you've seen it but it was just perfect. I was just about due to have L and found that day very, very difficult. I didn't have my Pandora bracelet then so I just wore it on a silver chain around my neck. I had it on when I was in labour and when I gave birth to our son, knowing that our angel was watching over us. Now I have my bracelet, she sits just where she belongs with her sister and brother, between my little girl and little boy charms.

Going to check out that site though, sounds great.

What a wonderful idea BW. A special reminder you can forever cherish.

What a beautiful idea!! I have seen similar things in magazines, but i like the idea of custom designing it with certain charms!! I think i will check it out!!

BW, what a beautiful way to remember your precious angel. Thank you for sharing

That really is an excellent suggestion.
Thanks so much for sharing.
It really appeals to me I'll have to look into it a bit more.
I can only wear certain types of metal due to allergies so I'll be looking into getting somehting made.
Thanks so much.

with some encouragement from BW i visited the site - i wasn't looking for a rememberance item so much as something to push me to be more positive in looking forward in this journey. So, i contacted the site, and arranged to have an anklet made (i already have a bracelet for our angel babies) - so now i have received this gorgeous anklet...

it has message beads :
Faith, Courage, Hope and Grace - each having strong meaning for me

i LOVE it!!

My charm bracelet arrived, and was worn for a few days, and then sent back to have one of the charms switched. It just wasn't quite right as it was. I received it back in the mail yesterday and I find that it's absolutely perfect now. When I have the right lighting I'll put a picture in the gallery so everyone can see, and I'll explain why each charm is as it is.

Meanwhile, I was so impressed with how helpful the woman running the website (Sue Mosquera) was as I ordered a message bracelet with fairly complicated requirements. I needed something to focus forwards with, and there were many, many emails running backwards and forwards until I had just the right words (which landed in my lap one night at a completely unrelated dinner). The second bracelet arrived with my first one, and I'm completely in love with both. I have in the gallery the picture of the second bracelet that Sue sent me to check that everything was ok before it was shipped. Like BG, the words on the bracelet have very strong meanings for me and it is just amazing now to not only have something with which to remember my Caterpillar, but something to help me focus on the future and not giving up.
