I am writing this post to share a site and organization that I stumbled upon while looking up photographers in the area.
I found this site when my son was only two weeks old. Keep in mind that at the time (and even now that he’s four months old) I worry every night about the horror of anything ever happening to my little angel!
If you go to the site at now I lay me down to sleep you will see beautiful photographed pictures of families with their sweet little babies.
These photos are taken at no charge to the families.
Some of these photo’s are of babies who are not going to live past a few weeks, days, or hours.
Others are pictures of parents holding their newborn baby who has already past away, to keep the love and respect for the little one’s life alive even though the baby has already departed.
But all will be cherished memories of a little life lost too soon.
Chilean Miner Ariel Ticona was the second to last miner to be freed from the Chilean mine on October 13, 2010, but perhaps he was the most anxious as he had a new member of the family to meet.
Chilean Miners spent an incredible 69 days over 2000 feet underground!
Praise the lord all 33 miners were rescued!
I seriously believe I would have gone insane after one day!
