Welcome to the Sweet Pea Project's Blog, part of the Sweet Pea Project's effort to create a supportive and compassionate community for those of us affected by the death of a child. Here you will find updates on the Sweet Pea Project, as well as anything going on in the world that relates to childloss. If you have a suggestion for a topic you would like to see discussed here, I'd love to hear it. Please make sure you stop by the official website, www.sweetpeaproject.org and feel free to email me for any reason at anytime at Stephanie@sweetpeaproject.org.

Unity Award

We are all excited over here at Sweet Pea Project, because we just received the news that our own Stephanie Cole has been nominated for the Unity Award for Moms Making a Difference.  This award is given by the nonprofit organization MASK, a group of dedicated mothers who recognize the need to consistently educated families on rapidly changing issues.  The winner of the Unity Award will receive a large spread in MASK the Magazine.  It is a wonderful opportunity for Sweet Pea Project, for bereaved parents all across the country, to have their voices heard.  We'd be bringing the topic of infant death, a topic that is still so very taboo in many parenting circles and publications, into the spotlight.  Please help us by voting for Stephanie and sharing this with you friends.  You can vote once a day, every day, from now until Feb 1, 2013.  Thank you for your support!
