I'm always poking around to see what good deals I can find - but this one really touched my heart today and I think it will touch yours as well.
I found this deal on Plum District today - $20 for $40 of personalized sterling silver necklaces - perfect gift for Mother's Day or Graduation. But the real gift is learning how this company started - it puts a whole new meaning behind the products. Here is an excerpt from the site, Simply Been:
Two years ago, I was introduced to the most special boy I know…
I was 5 months pregnant when I was first introduced to my second son. I watched during the ultrasound, as he moved around, kicking inside my belly. And it was just moments later that I listened to the doctor explain that he had a fatal birth defect, and he would not survive the pregnancy. Against doctor’s recommendations, I continued on with the pregnancy, carrying him to full term…
October 19, 2007, I finally got to see my little boy face to face. The doctor’s were right, he was born with a fatal birth defect, but he was born alive! Against all odds, he lived for 7 ½ hours…
Those hours were the most life changing, surprising, precious hours I have ever experienced. There is something so special about being a mom - despite all of your child’s “imperfections,” you are able to love them for who they are…perfectly, and fearfully made. And that’s also the very thing that makes it so very hard to say goodbye. Fortunately, there will be a day when I will wrap my arms around my little boy once again, in the presence of the same God who has been “babysitting” for me all these years. That will be a good day…
Until then, I hold tight to the truths of my experience – pain is difficult, but there hope and there is joy beyond the mourning.
As my close childhood friend, Kristin, and I began our new jewelry business, we decided to recognize and honor my little boy, Benjamin.
His life was…
simply beautiful.
simply perfect.
He is…
simply beautiful.
simply perfect.
He is…

I unfortunately know some great mamas that went through the loss of a child at the earliest of life...I find this necklace to be a great way to remember those "God is babysitting" and those that us moms are babysitting each and every day.
