A term I've come across quite often on the web is 'Rainbow Baby' If you've never experienced a loss you might not know what a 'Rainbow Baby' is....well
"Rainbow Babies" is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravages of the storm. When a rainbow appears, it doesn't mean the storm never happened or that the family is not still dealing with its aftermath. What it means is that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkness and clouds. Storm clouds may still hover but the rainbow provides a counterbalance of color, energy and hope.
Giovanna was our 'Rainbow Baby' and like a true rainbow her time here on earth was short but the impression she left in our hearts will never fade!
so perfect
