My Baby Bean

Most of you who have followed my blog for a while or those who know me at all, know that Chris and I called Jordan, Baby Bean from day 1. Before we had a name for him, He was Baby Bean. We added a few funnies in there like Jumpin' Bean and Jelly Bean but Baby Bean was his "nickname". Yesterday in the mail, amidst the many cards we receive each day (which I LOVE them all dearly) there was an envelope that was a little fatter than the rest. It was from a couple we used to be really close to when Chris was in the Marines. He opened the card and inside was a little black pouch that said "My Forever Child" in gold writing. I immediately got a lump in my throat b/c I have looked at this website many times since Jordan died. I just happened upon it one day looking at keepsake jewelry and have even chosen a necklace from there that I HAVE to have. Anyway, I opened the little pouch and there was this beautiful silver necklace shaped like a bean. The card from Marcy told me the necklace was actually called "The Baby Bean" necklace for mother's who had lost a child. I think it's probably for those who lost one earlier on than I but how PERFECT is this necklace? I absolutely love it. Marcy and Ant, thank you SO much. I will always treasure this necklace!
