There is a moment in birth where the world goes quiet, and a woman steps into the oldest kind of power.

I get to stand beside her in that sacred space — steady hands, steady breath — as she brings her baby earthside.

It’s primal.
It’s holy.

It’s the kind of awakening you don’t just witness… you feel in your bones. And every time,

I’m humbled to be invited into that place where strength, spirit, and surrender all meet.

Each butterfly on this remembrance tree carries a name, a heartbeat, a story, and a love that will never fade.

Today, i invited individuals to place who had had experienced pregnancy and infant loss to place a butterfly in honor of the babies who were called home too soon — each one deeply loved, each one forever remembered.

The work I do at Redwood Bereavement & Birth Services, gives me the honor to hold space for these tiny lives and the families who carry their memory.

May this tree stand as a reminder that love doesn’t end when life does — it transforms, it takes flight, and it continues in the hearts of those who remember. 🦋🌿

I’m so thankful for Georgetown Community Hospitalfor allowing me this opportunity to come alongside other businesses and resources and support the families in our community!

When the ONLY photo mama specifically ask for is of her placenta you take it.

So lets talk about it.

The placenta.
The only organ we grow for someone else.

It breathes, nourishes, and protects—an entire life sustained through a cord no wider than your finger. Then, once its sacred work is done, it releases. Quietly. Faithfully.

There’s something holy about an organ that gives everything and asks for nothing in return.

✨ It’s the only temporary organ in the human body.
✨ It grows from the same s***m and egg that form the baby — meaning it’s genetically both mom and baby.
✨ It delivers oxygen and nutrients, removes waste, and produces hormones that sustain pregnancy.
✨ Blood from the parent and baby never actually mix — nutrients and gases pass through a thin membrane.
✨ At birth, it weighs about one-sixth of the baby’s weight and takes on a beautiful “tree of life” pattern.

Day 15: Wave of Light

🕯️ Join the worldwide Wave of Light at 7pm.

• Light a candle and share your flame with the world.

On October 15th, at 7:00pm, I’ll join families around the world in lighting a candle for the babies we carry in our hearts.
Each flicker represents a name, a love, a life that will always matter.

I created these graphics for families to share as part of the Wave of Light — to say their babies’ names out loud and keep their memories shining.
If you’d like one made for your angel, please reach out. It would be my honor to include them.
