At times like this it is hard to know what to do, so I did what I do best...I made a card to send. I know it won't even begin to heal the loss, but I hope it will remind them that they are not alone. Here is the card I am going to send...
Card made using items from the new Occasions Mini including Clearly For You set |
Close-up of focal image...the tiny butterfly for me represents the tiny baby |
Inside of card...the two faded butterflies represent the grieving parents. |
The inside sentiment was chosen by my husband. I had wanted to use a sympathy sentiment, but my hubby, who experienced the loss of both his parents while still in his 20's, chose the simple "thinking of you" as being one his sister would appreciate. I stamped the two faded butterflies to represent my sister-in-law and brother-in-law as they struggle to find meaning in their sadness.
I really hope this brings them some small amount of comfort. Please do send them comforting thoughts...
They are definitely in my prayers. As time passes, people don't usually remember what was said to them during their initial loss, but they do remember who was there for them! It's a beautiful card Leena.
ReplyDeleteWords will never be enough! They will need HIS strength and comfort at this time.... and the presence of family and friends! My prayers are with you all!
