Touching the Hearts of Others

Many BLM's are receiving their handmade cards that I made for them for the holidays.  I have received many thank you's and a few stories about the family's reaction when they saw their card.  Tonight I was touched by several stories.  One you can read about by clicking HERE.

The second was a wall post on FB.  Here is it:
I just got my mail and there was your wonderful handmade christmas card. It came on a perfect day to , my 3 yr anniversary of my second angel loss. ♥ you and your precious WYATT ♥ {{HUGS}}

And the third, the one that brought me to tears, the one that made me realize a card can reach into the hearts of others came with a photo:


The card was place on the tree.  The caption on the photo read "Thank you megan this is my first xmas card for my serena i love it you brought us to tears even my hunny was crying he was sad and happy thank you". 

I would like to say thank you girls.  Thank you for allowing me to make something for your family.  Thank you for allowing me to honor your children.  Thank you!!!

Megan, thank you for Stella's card. I have been carrying it around with me for a week, I love it. I love receiving mail that reminds me that people are thinking of Stella. And it helps me to break out of my cocoon of self-pity and I always pay it forward. I always go right out and buy a card for another BLM. It makes me smile when someone remembers my child and I want to give that feeling to someone else. Thank you so much for reminding me that Stella is remembered and for helping me to pass along a smile and a warm hug to another.

Megan, our card came in the mail yesterday too... thank you sooooo much for taking the time to remember our little Sebastion, it meant the world to open a card with his name on it, AND it was the first christmas card we have received in our new house, which is sure to be remembered forever:) Much love to you and thank you again for everything you do to help others in their journey through grief. You are AMAZING!

Thank you so much for the card it came on a perfect day. I showed my children and they to thought it was neat that it came on that day. It's funny how just the simple things mean so much. I will always treasure it since I never got to meet my children that I lost. I don't have pictures or things like that.
Thanx again.
