My 2 year old sons passing/ memory incorporated in maternity photos

Ti • Wed, Jun 08

About 4 months ago, we scheduled maternity photos to be done at 36 weeks. Planning on being in them was myself, husband, and our two year old son. On May 16th, my world crashed down, and we lost our precious baby boy in a tragic accident. I never knew I could hurt so bad and feel so lost. I didn't want to do the pictures anymore because he wouldn't be there.. He wouldn't be in them. But then I thought, that's not fair to our baby boy that is due June 22nd. We did maternity photos for first, we couldn't not do them for Our second because of our sadness. So we decided to do them as long as she could incorporate Ben in the pictures some how. I had no idea it would be so hard. There are no words for how it felt. Thinking that these were the only family photos I would ever get... Just lots of pain, and lots of tears. I'm thankful we still did them. They turned out beautiful and capture our baby boys memory along with looking forward to his little brothers arrival..
