Chris, Jenni and CJ

Our story began when Chris and I met through friends in 1997. We got married October 10,1998 and shortly after that our first child CJ came along on October 13,2000. He was actually due on our anniversary the 10th. He was a huge baby 11 pounds and 7 ounces. So he decided to come on Friday the 13th and that day for me has been a lucky day ever since. He was our big fat healthy baby boy and he has been a joy to have. He is sweet and caring and just a great all around kid. We went almost 8 years before getting pregnant again and were really not even trying at the time. I found out I was pregnant in April of 2008. I had a pretty good pregnancy no major problems. I was just feeling it more because I was 35 this time around and got super sick twice during the pregnancy. We totally did not expect to loose Abbi the way we did. We were totally shocked and heart broken. We are hoping this will be a year of change for the better. We want to move to a neighborhood closer to the school and we are looking forward to summer. Chris and I are hoping we will be blessed with another child in the future but if not we have been blessed with CJ and also with Abigail. Having her and the experience we have been through losing her has changed our lives forever. 

To write their names in the sand

This is a service called To write their names in the sand. It is to honor the memory of a child lost and gone to Heaven. I found out about this through NILMDTS and had to have her name done. The picture turned out so beautiful with the sunset. Here is a little about the beach.

The beach where Carly writes all the children's names is called Mullaloo Point. Mullaloo Point is just north of the city of Perth in Western Australia.

It is simply Heavenly with the softest white sand you could ever imagine.


Thankyou to Carly and Sam-the couple who provides this service. They also know the heartbreak of losing a child and that is what inspired them to start this.

My best friend Lisa Holding Abbi

This is my friend Lisa we have known each other since I was 13. She is like a sister to me and we have been through alot in our 24 years of friendship. I don't know if I could have been able to make it through this without her.
