Last year I had an amazing IBLMD with two wonderful mommas. I wrote about it here.
For those unfamiliar with International Babyloss Mother's Day, you can visit the official website to learn more.
I knew that I defnitely wanted to have another meet up again this year. Unfortunately Stephanie was unable to attend but I was able to meet up with Kristin from Once A Mother again.
Last year, at our balloon release we had a beautiful thing happen. When looking at the pictures of the release we saw three baby faces in the clouds. You can read about and see the pics on that post. It was an amazing sign from our little girls. As a gift this year, Kristin brought me a picture of the release in a beautiful angel frame with Janessa's name in beads across the top.
A crazy detail about this is we all became pregnant very shortly after that day. I was that day but it was too early to know yet. We have all gone on to have healthy rainbow babies. Actually, Kristin went on to have twins!
We met up with our children and husbands. We had lunch at a park, went for a walk, and then visited Janessa's grave. We had visited Kristin's daughter Peyton's grave last year. At the cemetery we released some balloons in honor of our little girls.

I find that last shot breathtaking.
I wish we would have had more time that day.
Thank you Kristin for sharing this special day with me again.

I feel so much when I look at these pictures. I know there is a message there from our girls, it just takes us a few looks to figure it out. I feel a beautiful sense of peace from that last one. Thank you Mal, for being a wonderful friend and for sharing IBMD with me. I loved seeing Janessa's grave. It is just beautiful. xoxo
*hugs* I am glad you were able to spend IBLMD with a fellow BLM. We need to plan our New England get together now that all the rainbows are here :)
