I want to share something with you all. I have found what I think is the perfect Christmas ornament on the Internet. (That is, as perfect as can be considering our situation.) It is a sleeping baby wrapped in wings. I just ordered 2 from this website http://www.getfed.com/. I can't post a picture because of copyright issues, but here is the link to the item:
Joseph's Studio Baby's First Christmas Ornament at Getfed Discount Catholic Catalog
I also ordered 2 indoor statues that look very similar to the ornament so I can keep them out all year long. And I ordered 2 outdoor outdoor statues that also depict sleeping babies wrapped in wings. All of the pieces were somewhat affordable and shipping was free!!
I don't really think of my Sophia & Ellie as angels, but I do think of them as two Heavenly beings that are absolutely perfect in every way. Anyway, I just thought I would share because I know some of you have been searching for the perfect ornament to represent your babies and this is as close to it I have found.
Don't forget to visit Jeanette's blog to enter her giveaway and check back here tomorrow to see where to go next. Peace to you my friends!!

Ah, that's perfect :) I'm with you, and I really struggle to find something that feels "right," because I also don't think of or believe that our babies are angles, but yet in Heaven and perfect in every way!) This seems like the perfect way to convey that.
ReplyDeleteHope the "25" days are going well so far, I'm so proud of you for organizing it - fabulous idea!!!
Tina, it's so funny that you posted this today. I found the garden statue of this yesterday and ordered one for when we do our landscaping. As soon as I saw it, I thought it was perfect. I ordered mine from http://shop.christmascentral.com/Items/rinc%2011276?sck=7013321&caSKU=rinc%2011276&aTitle=Joseph%27s%20Studio%20Precious%20Sleeping%20Baby%20in%20Angel%20Wings%20Garden%20Statue%2014.25%22
ReplyDeletevery nice. I friend of mine emailed a list of places for ornaments. I am going to check them out and post them in my blog.
ReplyDeletehow very beautiful... I know they will look lovely on your tree.
ReplyDeleteI saw that one as I have been searching. I love it. I def also want to get the larger statue for Janessa's garden.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous...thanks for sharing this with us.
ReplyDeleteThat is precious. Thank you for sharing. *hugs*
ReplyDeleteThose ornaments are beautiful. Thank you for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteThe ornament is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVery Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove it! So happy you found this sweet ornament to honor your girls :) I suppose we are all searching for the "perfect" ornament this season. And, I have complete faith we will all find exactly what we need. Hugs to you...
ReplyDeleteTruly precious. I'm actually looking forward to putting a tree up this year so that I can hang all the little ornaments I've been collecting.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! My first thought was that they are a perfect symbol for the care your girls are receiving in heaven.
ReplyDeleteI purchased the same several weeks ago. My daughter's 3 month birthday will fall on Christmas day.
ReplyDeleteI think the ornaments are a wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteI found you through Jess (Momma of 2 Angels), and I just wanted to stop by and offer my condolences on the loss of your twin girls. I'm just so sorry. :( I was induced at 34 weeks and our baby girl was born on 8/28/09. She lived a little over an hour. After experiencing this pain, I always hate to hear of others who are going through it.
