For Lola...

This morning I was reading the blog of a simple savings forum member, when I stumbled across a link to a blog that has had a tremendous effect on me. The blog is a heartbreaking, yet incredibly inspiring, story of a woman's journey since the loss of her baby, Lola, earlier this year. You can read about Kristalee's journey here.

As part of a memorial service for Lola, Kristalee has asked that readers of her blog (as well as family and friends) send her a photograph of every day things with Lola's name somehow included. I happened to be thinking of Lola and Kristalee while I was emptying the dishwasher, so I created the photo below:

If there is one thing I've taken away with me from Kristalee's blog it's that life is a lot more fragile than perhaps we realise, so make the most of the time you have with those you love.
