In honor of National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, I asked Jess to share her spoken project today. She asked people to email or write a comment with their baby(ies)'s names and she read the list. I am unable to host mp3s on this blog, so I am asking you to follow this link to hear her incredibly moving list. And please please consider leaving a comment there telling her what you thought of this project. Her work moves me beyond words, and I hope you find it as powerful as I do. Thank you, Jess.
I Remember.
