A year ago tomorrow my friends baby boy Cole was born. A few days later he passed. I wanted to do something special to remember his birthday. They are going to the cemetary tomorrow and the kids are releasing balloons with birthday wishes on it.
Any ideas?

A dear friend of mine lost a baby just 3 weeks after birth due to meningitis. Several friends got together and purchased a tree that we sent them to plant in her memory. I believe it was a tulip tree if I remember correctly, so it blooms. It is now in their yard and I know they feel it is a special memory of her.

I think the balloon wishes they are doing is such a nice idea as well.

I always buy people a Willow Tree Angel of Remembrance, because mine means so much to me. You could also leave a little teddy bear or something similar at his grave. Anything you do will mean so much to them, because the most important thing is knowing that other people remember.
