Audrey's, Tristan's, and Luke's necklace

"marked by love necklace {audrey's necklace}
some lives, though short, profoundly change the world and leave a mark on our hearts. for moms who have lost a child, their hearts are forever marked by love. this beautiful necklace was created in collaboration with angie smith {bring the rain} who lost her baby girl, audrey caroline."

My dear friend Christie sent me this necklace after Luke was born. She has one for her son. My husband and I both had tears in our eyes when I received it in the mail, something tangible to remember our son, something I could feel against my skin. As friends emailed and passed on links to blogs of mothers who also had experiend loss, there were two whose daughters were named Audrey. One day I pulled up the website of the designer of the necklace looking for something possibly for Tony and I saw my necklace and then I read the description that I copied above. I was awestruck, "I might know this Audrey's mom?!" So I went to the two blogs of the two Audrey's and found that the necklace was Angie Smith's Audrey and whose blog was sent to me by a friend of mine who attends church with Angie.
What a small world!
The necklace is just that much more special to me not only because of who it was given by but knowing it was created by and for a another mother like myself and my friend.
