Memorial Ideas:
Balloon Launch -- This is a very popular option for a memorial. You can tie letters and mementos to the balloons and release them into the sky. With a balloon launch, there is the symbolism of sending your letters and mementos to heaven, as well as the symbolism of release. You can get some beautiful pictures of the parents releasing the balloons and watching them fly away.
Memorial Garden -- A lot of parents choose to plant a flower, tree, or bush in memory of their angel baby. This leaves a lasting memorial of your child that will grow, blossom, and change with the seasons. You can also consider putting a bench with your angel's name or a statue that reminds you of your angel in your garden. If you had a natural miscarriage at home and have your angel's body, you may choose to bury it in your yard. If so, you may want to put your plant, bench, or statue at the burial site as a marker and a reminder. This website has a great list of plant meanings, as well as "birth flowers" that correlate to certain months.
