Today we went to the sea
It has been one year
Since we said our formal goodbye to Matilda Mae
Since we celebrated her little life
It has been an emotional day
Today we went to the sea
With our magic wands and fairy dust
With our very special stones
Today we went to the sea
We visited our special place
We made wishes on magic pebbles
And sent them out to sea
We made a wish for Matilda Mae
And for her special friends
Harrison and Freddie
We chanted
We make a fairy wish, we make a fairy wish
We kissed the stones
And made them sparkle with magical dust
And then tossed them to the wind
To the sea
Today we went to the sea
Today we remembered our baby
Our baby Matilda Mae
Today we remembered her
We honoured her
We wished for her
And through her
We remembered them
How has it possibly been a year
Since Baby Tilda’s goodbye?
We miss you Baby Tilda in the sky
William spotted one of your magical clouds today
A Baby Tilda cloud
A pink cloud
Floating on a bright blue sky
We love you and miss you Matilda Mae
Today and every day
Always
Today we remembered you
And them
And we sent fairy wishes to the sea
To the sky x
What a beautiful way to spend an emotional and difficult day. Love the stone idea too xx
A truly lovely way to spend what must have been a painfully difficult day. I still can’t believe it’s been a year. Thinking of you today and always xx
Can’t believe it has been one year already. I know it’s a cliché to say it could have been yesterday, but you know what? I can imagine so easily that it was only yesterday. Such is the fluid nature of time… and so is it possible that it will be like no time will have passed for either you when you meet again… x x x x x x
With the special addition if fairy dust and wishes, those stones are going to travel far and wide. They’ll see things the rest of us never will and will take #MatildaMae’s legacy around with them.
Hope the next few days are gentle for you all xxx
I’m thinking of you all. Two of Matilda’s forget me nots are growing in my garden, I’ve been watching them grow for a couple of weeks now, hopefully they’ll flower soon x
You always remember Matilda in such lovely ways. This sounds beautiful and I am glad you are making these memories for the twins- they will always know how special their baby sister is

Wow, such a beautiful way to spend such a difficult day. Love the little stones idea, wonderful touch to honour your angel.
Beautiful photos to capture what must have been such a difficult day for you all. Those beautifully decorated pebbles are like stepping stones between you and Matilda – through your love and care her memory and legacy lives on. Thinking of you as always x
What a lovely idea. 🙂 I wonder who will find them in many moons and stars to come xx
