Happyness is... bittersweet


Tiny handknit hat displayed on a brown egg.

About a year ago, I made and mailed this hat to an organization called "Calvin's Hats".

Calvin's Hats is a non-profit organization that distributes the tiniest of hats to families who have had little ones leave much too soon.  Their hats to go to hospitals across the United States
 and to individual families all over the world.

Today, I was so surprised to stumble across the same little hat when I was looking at Facebook. 

This is what I found:


This is a picture of Calvin's Hats that we received last year. The white hat on the left is for our daughter Seraphina Rose, her heart stopped beating at 14 weeks on Feb 23, 2012. The pink one in the middle is for our daughter Levitia Jane, we miscarried at 7 weeks with her on May 5, 2012. The hat on the right was warn by our daughter Edith Loranne when she was born still on Sept. 19, 2012 due to a cord accident at 20 weeks, the hand prints above are Edith's perfect hands we got to hold in ours. Our two older daughters here on earth looks at these hats everyday and pray to their little sisters. Thank you Calvin's Hats for all you do.


Happyness is learning that you provided a small amount of comfort to a family who has struggled so much.
