Capture Your Grief – Day 12 – Normalizing Grief

October 12, 2015 by Angela Riggs

Leo, Sometimes Your older sisters will hold a funeral for their favorite baby doll. They will find shoe box, pick all the flowers in the yard, hold a service, tell a prayer, and lay their sweet baby to rest.  Sometimes they’ll sing a song or tell a story about their baby’s life and how they […]

Capture Your Grief -Day 6 – Books

October 6, 2015 by Angela Riggs

Leo, Almost as soon as you passed away, books started to fill my nightstand and iPad. Friends, family, strangers, even some authors, gifted us their books about loss, grief, and especially Heaven. I became fascinated and so thirsty for knowledge of where you were.  I have never been to heaven, you see, so I needed […]
