Journal Prompts to Remember Your Child (Printable brochure)

When a child is born, parents want to document everything: first moments, pregnancy memories, outfits and the multitude of emotions that come with new life.

When a child dies, this desire to document remains. It’s a means of holding onto the sweetness in the midst of the pain.

One way to document is through journaling.
