This is an entry I hoped to never make. But I am. Because it's that important. Sometimes life doesn't go as planned. Sometimes we experience life in a way that is heartbreaking and we find ourselves in an unexpected place.
"The Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep Foundation is there for parents and families to help aid them in their Healing, bring Hope to their future, and Honor to their child. It is through Remembrance that a family can truly begin to heal."
It is my hope that there will never be another family that loses their beautiful little blessing. But there will. Instead I will hope that there will never be another family that goes without tender photographs that can help them start healing. Really I am writing this so every parent knows there is a wonderful Foundation that provides this. I am not an affiliated photographer with NILMDTS. But I did have to make arrangements between them and a family recently. I documented the funeral service for them, but because of the sensitive nature they will remain private.
A special thank you to Michele Celentano who made it happen while out of town. And may the Rogers and Doerscheln family find healing and peace.

Andrea,
Thank you so much for all that you've done for us. Helping us get in contact with the NILMDTS Foundation and for helping us get every second of Matthew's short life documented with photos that we will forever be grateful for. Also, for all of your time and work at the funeral service. My hope is that the photos we have of Matthew will help heal our hearts a little piece at a time. He will ALWAYS be that wonderful beautiful blessing that was taken way to soon..Or maybe he was just to perfect to stay in this world. All I know is that for whatever reason God needed him for.. I know he will always be watching over us and I hope we make him as proud of us as he made us of him.
Susan
