While we have been blessed to bring seven living children into this world, along the way, we have lost three children to miscarriage. Our first two died at 6 and 10 weeks of gestation, and their remains are buried in baby food jars at the head of our gravesites.  We noticed the improved appearance of the 10 week old when in the jar of water. Our last loss was at 17 weeks and required us to go through labor at the hospital.  We chose to place him in a jar of water also, and his appearance improved dramatically from when he was delivered.  Despite searching diligently for a suitable burial casket, he was buried in a canning jar that fit into a wooden box we had found.  We realized there was a real need to provide burial materials for miscarried children, and so we began developing and offering these products.
