Hi Kristi,
I love the ruby idea. My husband said that he had intended to buy a piece of jewellry for me when our baby was born and we talked about it again and have decided to have a ring made using Max's birthstone (sapphire) and we'll have it engraved with his name and birthdate.

I had my first session with a bereavement counsellor on Friday. I wish I could say that I got a lot out of the session but to be honest, she really didn?t tell me anything that I didn?t already know. She wants to see me again and I will go but essentially she said that I need to grieve (yep), that no one can tell me that I?m grieving for too long or too much (ok), and I need to give myself some space to grieve (right-o). Ultimately, it?s going to take time.

For now I?m putting my energy into knitting some outfits to replace the ones that were given to my little boy. Seeing him dressed and being able to hold him wrapped in a blanket was very special and I would like to give that back to someone in the same situation.
