Same Hospital and Date
I have no words for how precious my girl's prints are to me. 💕
When I shared this photo last night, one of my Instagram followers, who said she randomly found my page by browsing the front page, commented and said her brother was born at the same hospital in 1986, and also on March 16th! Such a small world! I'm always blown away by the similarities with others God places across my path.

Lily's "Mamie's Poppy Plate"
I recently got another beautiful keepsake in honor and memory of my Lily girl.
Last summer, I came across Mamie's Poppy Plates, "a donation supported non-profit whose mission is to provide tangible mementos to families who suffer stillbirth or infant death. Our keepsake plates, given to affected families at no charge, are customized with the baby's footprints, name and birth information. Mamie's Poppy Plates exists not to fill the impossible void of loss but to serve as a timeless reminder of their baby's brief yet profound life."
When I first found Mamie's Poppy Plates, they were charging for the plates (for the people who weren't directly tied to their local hospital). I meant to place my order then, but for some reason waited until this spring. When I went back to place my order, I saw that they now offer them FREE of charge!
For those who are interested in requesting a plate in honor of their baby of Heaven, all you have to do is print out the form and fill out your baby's information and how you want your plate to look, then you mail it in (along with a copy of your baby's hand and/or footprints) and wait a couple months for your plate to arrive!
My plate is absolutely gorgeous! I am planning on hanging it on my memorial collage wall for Luke and Lily. I have lots of things to hang and am trying to frame everything and get it all together. Once it's complete, I will share photos.
The plate came in an adorable box, along with a cute sticker with the Mamie's logo.
If you are able to contribute to this amazing ministry, please consider doing so. I thank them so much for this beautiful memento that means so much to me. I love getting things with Lily's precious prints on them. Since I cannot create new memories with her as she grows up, I treasure the sweet keepsakes I can get. The fact that she has a name and birthday and I have her prints, weight and length, proves that she was real. She was here!
Thank you, Mamie's Poppy Plates for everything you do! I will always think of your sweet Mamie when I look at my plate.

I wanted mine to be pink (the lettering has to be black), and wanted only Lily's first and middle names, her birthday, stats, and footprints. You can really request how you want it to be though. Check out the website for examples of what others have requested.

Prints on my Heart
I finally scanned Lily's hand and footprints to share. The lady that scanned them cut off some of her hands, which makes me sad. But, here they are. My precious daughter's tiny hands and feet. Each time I look at them, I am amazed that someone can be that small.
