We learned about Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep the week after Cara died. If we had only known! Here's a great article about the organization.

Our cries for the daughter who came into the world silently but spoke volumes into our lives
The Story of Cara Grace
Cara Grace
March 18 (38.5 weeks)
5 lbs, 15 ounces, 19 inches
Cara Grace was a completely healthy little girl born silently into this world 10 days before her due date. We experienced the ideal pregnancy without a single known risk factor. It was only after her death that a treatable blood condition was diagnosed.
We grieve not having her here with us every day. She was our firstborn, our only child, the joy of our life.
We take comfort in knowing Cara is with God, but we do not believe that her death was part of some big plan. Death, sickness, brokenness, they are all contrary to the original design of life. We take hope that a day is coming when all will be redeemed and life in its fullness will be restored.
Until then we wait with joyful anticipation for the day when we will once again see our baby girl...
