I can't even begin to conjure up any understanding of the feelings related to this type of loss. I could never make a card like this, as it would be stained with tears. However, the need for these cards is unfortunately very real, and your kindness will help many parents I am sure. This is a great thing you are doing, and your card is peaceful and beautiful.

Having experienced the loss of our first child over 20 years ago, I can only tell you what a wonderful gesture this is on your behalf. Fortunately these days there seems to be a slightly better understanding of the needs of parents faced with such an unexpected and heartbreaking loss than there used to be. God bless you in your efforts to comfort others.

This is so beautiful. My niece and her husband just lost their twin boys at 22 weeks. We are heartbroken and are praying for all who have had to live through this tragedy. My sister has asked me to make some special cards and I knew I would find something here. Thank you for sharing this.
