A little promise they can wear close to their heart.
Some goodbyes are simply too big for little hearts.
When someone they love is going to die...or has already passed away, it's hard to know what to say. How do you explain that someone can be gone and still be such a big part of their world?
Sometimes, it helps to give them something they can understand.
I will always find my way to you.
This little sea turtle was created around that promise.
A tiny sea turtle can find its way across a great big ocean. And love is like that, too.
We can tell our little ones that even when they can't see someone they love anymore, that love still knows exactly where to find them.
In a dream. A favorite song. A butterfly that appears at just the right moment. A seashell tucked into the sand. Or a memory that comes back when they need it most.
The little heart carried on the turtle's shell is a reminder:
I WILL ALWAYS FIND MY WAY TO YOU
Before giving it to them, you might choose a special sign together. Something they can watch for after goodbye. Something that can quietly mean, I found my way to you. And maybe one day, when they're missing them especially hard, they'll find that little sign. And they'll remember their turtle.
Love knows the way home.
