A Sweet Gift


A beautiful gift arrived today via email ...
My Valentine's gift...
John ordered this for me ...
For us ... For our children ...
Samuel's name ...
Personally wrote in the sand by Carly Marie Dudley from Project Heal . Samuel's name was written at sunset in the beautiful white sand at Mullaloo Point Beach, North of the city of Perth in Western Australia .
This will be blown up on canvas and put on the wall in our living room.
Where we can look at it ...
Every.
Single.
Day.
Carly and her husband Sam started this project after their son Christian was born stillborn in 2007. Since then she has written over 16,000 children's names in the sand. 
You can read her story here :

How beautiful. I plan to order mine for my son Elliot this year for his birthday. We plan to move in the next month or two and I can wait to find the perfect spot in our new home for a picture just like this.
