Words cannot express.......

How sad I am today............Today was one of those days, you hope in life never to have to experience. I attended a friends baby's funeral. Her beautiful perfect baby boy died one month before he was due to be born, she then had to deliver him prematurely, last Tuesday and today he was laid to rest. How devastating this is for her and her family, it is such a tragedy. So many hopes and dreams gone.

She wanted someone to photograph the ceremony for her so she could look back in years to come and remember this significant day, as she knew she was going to be too distressed to fully comprehend, or remember it. I and another of our friends offered to do this for her. As scrapbooker's we could appreciate how important this would be for her. This baby was dearly loved and had become a part of their family over the 8 months of her pregnancy. His 3 big sisters had been eagerly awaiting their little brother's arrival as had Mum and Dad been awaiting their first born son. As upsetting as it was to attend and photograph the funeral I was honored to have been able to do this for them and I hope the photo's we took will give them something to cherish in years to come.

No more from me tonight.
