Remembrances

Here is the tree we planted in baby Zach's memory. We planted it right outside the room that would have been his nursery. It is a gingko tree, and its leaves will turn a beautiful yellow/gold in the fall. Wish us luck at keeping it alive - we don't have a very good track record with plants...


Adam and I recenlty learned that gingko herbs are used to enhance memory. We thought that was pretty cool, seeing as Zach's name means "The Lord will remember"- and this tree is in honor of him.

The other remembrance we have purchased is a ring. It is a March birthstone ring - in memory of the month baby Zach was born. The stone is a heart-shaped aquamarine set in white gold. I love it.
