First, I just realized that I had never posted pictures of Madeline's completed nursery. Check the photo album for the most updated pics! A special thanks to Aunt Pateen for making the beautiful window shade and pillows to match the bedding, Nana for stripping and painting the side table and Granny for cross-stitching the beautiful blanket!! All of these are so special to us!
So just last week Travis and I decided to start a new "venture." We are going to start a non-profit organization in memory of Madeline. Our ultimate goal is to raise awareness of miscarriages, stillbirths and infant deaths. We are also hoping to raise enough money to help parents in these situations with unforeseen medical bills, funeral costs, etc. This will be a HUGE task to get everything up and running, but we are so absolutely excited about it and I am confident that things will start to come together soon for us. We already have 7 confirmed people on the Board of Directors!! We really hope that this will take off and become something so great that we can help LOTS of families. Please pray that we are able to gather the resources and people needed to get this organization off of the ground!
