My computer was broken a couple of weeks back so finishing requests is now a little impossible. I will be starting the butterflies on the waiting list again January. I just can't promise completing and mailing butterflies before then. I am so sorry for the delay. Please feel free to keep requesting.
I did participate in some gift exchanges and made butterflies for those mommies. Here they are:
Hugs and happy holidays to all of you. I hope you find some peace in your hearts and know that your sweet baby is always close.

Poem Help
Hi ladies! I need some help...I want to make the memory butterflies better. One way I was thinking about was to give mommies an option on which poem they would like to go with their butterflies. I know I could have just googled butterfly poems but I wanted to know which poems have really touched you on this journey, especially ones that mention butterflies. Please email me at jeremiahsboxes@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your help.

350
A new batch of butterflies will be sent on it's way this week. Sorry that request are taking a little longer, I am trying to sit down once a month and do all the ones that have been requested for the month. Today I completed all the ones for October and up until today in November. I have run out of yellow as well. I am currently on maternity leave (rainbow baby) and work is where I laminate and die cut the butterflies.The two butterflies left on the waiting list are for the colors I have no more of....so very sorry ladies but I am going to try to take a trip to my school this week to die cut more yellow and pink. Thank you for understanding!
The title of this post is 350 the reason why is because I have officially made 350+ butterflies. This is very bittersweet for me. Thank you to all the families that have given the opportunity to help you remember your beautiful babies. I feel honored to do that for you. Thank you!!!!

My angel was born still on May 21, 2005 and her dute date was October 31, 2005, she was born at 21 weeks. Its been hard on me lately, but having her rainbow sister, Nevaeh (3), around to celebrate her life with me has helped. Shes so proud of her big angel sissy, and talks to her everyday.

Serenity
My daughter Serenity was born a stillborn on March 24, 2009 two months after I was in a bad car wreck. She is up in Heaven with her big brother Zane.
Zane
Zane
My son Zane was born 3 months early on August 23, 2007. He spent 108 days in the NICU. I thought I was going to lose him in late November but he made it all the way to December 9,2007. Dec 9th was the hardest day of my life. It was the day I had to say bye to my son and let him go to Heaven.
My Love
I was 10 weeks along when I went to the doctor for the first look at our surprise bundle of joy! My husband wasnt able to get off work, & my mom was in Germany, so there I was alone. The doctor started the internal ultrasound, & wasnt able to find a heartbeat. She said the baby was small. Maybe I wasnt as far along as I thought I was. She sent me immediately to a specialist. I called my husband and told him to get there fast. My husband hadnt made it to the specialist, when the news was confirmed. The baby stopped growing, and had no heartbeat. I lost it. How can God take away something we had grown to love and came at a time when we needed her. I had to carry her for a 4 more days until surgery could be done. After I came home, empty handed, the only thing we had to hold is a beautiful poem the hospital gave us... we wondered if the baby was a girl or boy... So my daughter nicknamed the baby, peanut. I just called the precious gift my angel. I now have a 2 year old, and wonder what life would be like. I miss my angel daily, and will always think about my precious gift. I was taught alot and will not take any time for granted. I wear a charm with a heart inside a star to always remember how my gift brightened my day!

All Caught Up
All of the butterflies requested as of yesterday are complete. Hooray!! Requests are still open so please feel free to request a butterfly. I did run out of pink butterflies and as of right now only have a peach color. So Sorry! If you received a peach butterfly and would like a pink one please send me another request. I went ahead and made a peach one because I did not want you to wait but am happy to get a pink one to you-when I can get more. Thank you for understanding. I also posted individual pictures of each butterfly after the group one so be sure to scroll down. Hugs to you!

Be sure to scroll down after the picture of all the butterflies to find a picture of each individual butterfly. Thank you for being so patient.
Hugs to all!!

Requests
Hi Everyone-
Please know that on June 15th I will be closing requests for butterflies for a short period of time. I have memory boxes to make in memory of my Jeremiah that I want to have ready for his first birthday in July. I also want to plan his 1 year angel day. In addition, last year when we lost Jeremiah, it was 13 days before my older son's second birthday. Needless to say the celebrating was very limited and I feel like for his 3rd birthday I have to make it up to him. I will open up request once all of that is done. Thank you for understanding but in the mean time, if you would like a butterfly made or know someone who would like one please go ahead and submit the requests.
Hugs!

Little Delayed
Hi just wanted everyone to know that I have been a little delayed with the current request. I have updated the waiting list and plan on working on the butterflies this week and sending them your way by the end of the week. I am so sorry but I have been busy and then I got a cold which did not help.
Thank you for trusting me with the memory of your sweet baby. If you haven't requested a butterfly and plan on doing so, please do. They will be completed this week.
Sending hugs your way!!
