We named our angel last weekend. I felt like it was something I needed to do. I'm the one who picked it out but I ran it by Dh to make sure he was fine with it.
My angel's name is Thomas Shaw. The day after I miscarried I kept feeling it my heart that his name should have been Thomas. It was one of the names on our list. Shaw is a family name is after my grandpa who is in heaven.

Today is my due date and I wrote a letter to Thomas today to put in his memory box. I'm also going to order a keychain (I'm not a big jewelry person) with little baby footprints and stones for his conception, loss and due months.

I also put flowers at his memory statue. I'll leave them there for today and bring them in tonight or tomorrow before they die.









I miss him so much. My little Thomas, my little Dear One. I would have done anything to keep him.

Your garden is just beautiful. I'm sure Baby Thomas thinks it is just as pretty as we do. Sending many T&P's for you today! (((((HUGS)))))

I'm glad Dear one has been officially named. I love the idea of a keychain to carry representing Thomas.

Shannon, what a beautiful name you've chosen. I think you will start to find a bit more closure and peace with his passing by doing what you've done. Little Thomas' memorial stone and the flowers are perfect. big HUGS
