October is recognized as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month.

A month that carries much weight for each of us.

It is a time where we get to honour the babies we never got to hold, the ones we didn’t keep, and the grief that knows no timeline.

To every mom and dad carrying a silent ache you are not alone and this October, we remember them together, we say their names, we share their memories and honour those that love them.

Thinking of our community this weekend, as we mark International Bereaved Father's Day on the last Sunday of August.

Honouring all the dads/partners today and the immense courage they bring to all of it… the grief, the hope and the healing.

This Father’s Day, we hold space for all the dads and father figures whose heart might be feeling a little extra heavy this weekend.

We honour the silent and enduring strength it takes to carry both-the love and the grief, the anger and the joy, the sorrow and the hope.

Wishing you a gentle Father’s Day 🩵🦋

Just over 2 weeks ago we were all together in Millennium Park for the 2025 Peterborough Butterfly Run. Harrison Perkins Videography/Photography was there and captured so many wonderful moments from the day. This includes speaking to many of you. Please take some time to watch and share this video. We are truly inspired by your strength and compassion.

We have been thinking a lot about our loss community this past week…

It could be because Bereaved Mother’s Day just passed or because Mother’s Day weekend is coming up….but whatever it is, we feel the weight of it.

The magnitude of your stories, the courage, the sorrow, the hope, the greatest love possible…all of it.

Thinking of you all as you walk through these days with the unimaginable weight of carrying your love and grief together.

Wishing you a gentle week as you honour your motherhood today and everyday 🤍.
