Happy 1st Birthday Leah

May 2nd marks the day that 1 year ago my niece, Leah, came into this world already gone. I called my sister to see how she was doing and we talked a bit. Hard to believe she would be one year old and that if she had not come into this world too soon that my niece, Natalie, would not have been born almost a month ago.

I’m so glad that I was able to be present (although I didn’t make it in time for her birth since I had to drive quite a distance). I had the privilege of being able to be present in tender moments and to be able to capture them, knowing how much they would meant later.

Happy Birthday Leah – We’ll always love and miss you! ♥

Being doulas will allow us to better serve families as a part of the new perinatal hospice and bereavement services SGM has added to our services. New pages have been added to the website so please go check it out!!

If you are interested in becoming a doula, especially for SGM, the next stillbirthday training is in the fall. Please go to their website to read more about it. There is also a bereavement photography training for SGM on May 6th.
