I see modern markers for children when I visit the cemetery where my parents are buried and often wonder...what is their story???

So touching and yet such a lovely image! It was so moving to wander through a very old cemetery in Beaufort, NC and see all the tiny little graves, and to know that over 100 years later, someone was still caring for those graves. #7930169
