    This A5 personalised in loving memory, memorial footprint journal is a thoughtful heartfelt condolences/sympathy gift for someone, offering a space to write to a precious son or daughter following loss. This is also a precious journal keepsake if you are looking for a safe place to help with releasing your own grief.

     

    The wording on the front of this memorial journal reads:

    Letters to (name here)

    If love could have saved you,
    you would have lived forever.

    Footprints
    I will automatically make each book with the footprints as shown; however if you have your baby's actual ink/paint footprints from the hospital, I would love to add these to the front of your journal for you. Please take a clear photo of them and attach them here or send me a message either before or straight after placing your order (so that I don't make your book up beforehand). 

    The text inside the cover reads:

    Forever in your heart

    I am the gentle breeze upon your face,
    the twinkle in the stars.
    I am the sudden ray of sunshine,
    that warms your broken heart.

    (Poem © Lisa Clarke)

    I wrote the poem above many years ago in memory of my daughter who was stillborn the day after my due date. They say that grief is love with nowhere to go. Having somewhere to write to your baby, your thoughts over time and journal your grief journey can be very cathartic. Looking back, it can help you to realise both how far you’ve come, and also the new room you’ve made in your heart to house that grief (love). They will never be forgotten and will always be held so very closely in your heart.

    Can I change the poem inside to be special to me?
    Yes of course! This is no problem at all, please let me know in the personalisation section.

    How is the A5 notebook personalised?
    I personalise the outside and inside cover of each notebook using silver or gold foil printing. **Please note that the trim on all of the pens is silver**

    How quickly can I expect to receive my notebook after ordering?
    You can check our current waiting times on our postage information page here.

    How will my notebook arrive?
    Your personalised baby memorial notebook will arrive in a lovely presentation envelope. This is great for giving as a thoughtful gift, but also good for keeping a notebook safe going forward if you're carrying it around with you in a bag.

    Is it a hardback cover on the A5 personalised notebook?
    Yes, our A5 notebooks have a soft touch, hardback cover.

    Are the pages inside the personalised notebook blank?
    Our personalised baby memorial journals are blank with lined pages ready to be filled with letters and thoughts to a precious baby. If you are looking for a more structured grief journal with prompts to help, you can find our guided grief journal here.

    How will my baby memorial notebook arrive?
    Each journal comes inside of a (free) The Self-care Journal co. book pouch. I also include a little tag and the front ties together in a bow, so these are really lovely for giving as gifts. The book pouch can then be used over and over again going forward and helps to keep books scratch/scuff free inside of bags.

    Can I include a gift message instead of the tag?
    Yes you can. There is a space for a note at checkout where you can add your message, or you can send me an email after ordering.

    The journal was so thoughtfully created… it meant more to my granddaughter who lost her baby daughter than I could have imagined. Can’t put into words the care and love and creativity that came with the journal … thank you with all my heart ❤️
