Lee also reads an essay he wrote about the forces that turn dangerous broken glass into something beautiful.

Reflecting on the different phases of grief
Comparing grief to sea glass and the beauty that can come from pain
Finding solace in remembering their sweet baby boy on his birthday
How honoring their baby boy brings peace and a deeper sense of family
While the reminder of the loss of a child can be painful, it’s possible to find comfort in celebrating their life. How do you remember your child on their birthday? We’d love to hear your stories.
Quotes:“It was nice and we didn't go over the top. [And nobody] I don't think we felt like we were guilting anybody to celebrate with us. And it was very well incorporated into what a birthday for a six year old would be like in our family.” – Lee and Winter (2:02)
“This year was my son Brannan’s sixth birthday, and maybe for the first time, it was a very peaceful, calm day for me. It wasn't filled with hectic scheduling, trying to figure out how to get fundraising, or do service projects. It was a day of remembrance and a day of family.” – Lee (8:21)
