Planting a tree 🌳💗

Today I went to my grandmas house to see our new peach tree :peach: be planted. I stumbled upon a program that offers memorial trees to be planted for families who have experienced late term loss, started by a woman local to me who experienced the same thing. This tree is a loving living reminder of my son, Jazz, who I lost at 33.5 weeks pregnant. Today is a big day for me. Heavy hearted, full of love and grateful for my son Stevie who is almost 5 months old now and will get to watch this peach tree grow. :deciduous_tree::growing_heart:

I feel supported by the woman who started this program and by my mom and grandmother who will look after and care for the tree.

That is the sweetest thing ever! It makes me want to cry! We planted a cherry tree next to my mom’s ashes. I’m sorry for your loss.
