Preserving the Past

So, I have been debating for a while now on what to do with something. I have a series of ultrasound pictures from this summer's pregnancy. I don't know what to do with them. On one hand, they are precious memories of live personified. Scott and I tried so long to create that little miracle. On the other hand, it is a reminder of one of the worst possible things that could happen to a couple. The loss of our second child was more painful than losing the first.

I want to remember how excited I was to see the progress and hear our little miracle's heartbeat. I saw it grow over the course of a couple weeks. I have heard that ultrasound pictures fade after a while, but I don't know how long that takes. So, I am choosing to keep them preserved on my blog. While they will be kept in perfect condition on the Internet, I have no idea what to do with the real ones and how to keep them preserved.

Our little miracle at 7 weeks 0 days. It was measuring small, but we had hope and faith.


The first and last time we heard the precious heartbeat. A week later, our little miracle was found to have gone home.
