Nolan Eason

At 1:03AM on Friday, March 30, 2012 my first child was born - a son. We named him Nolan Eason. 21" long, 5lb 3oz. He was beautiful and perfect in every way, except that he was stillborn. As we searched for answers to his untimely death, we also searched for comfort. This blog was created as a way of working through my sorrow by trying to find something beautiful in the world each day. Hopefully, along the way it will help others to heal as well.

Last Day Before Break

Today was like that last day of senior year... everyone was anxious to get done and go home. Unfortunately, it was not an early night so our anticipation of a two week break was well drawn out.

This was the first day since the death of Nolan that I've had to work with a baby on set. The baby was 9 months old, so she wasn't an infant, but it was still weird nonetheless. I don't know why, but it is still strange sometimes to be around babies, especially really young ones. Boy babies are the worse, though. It's just a reminder of what I lost.

Fortunately, our baby work was limited and we moved on to this cool warehouse where we ended the rest of our night. We would have been done sooner, but due to all the windows in the warehouse we had to wait for it to get dark before we could actually film. Since it was late before we wrapped, Marshall and I decided to just wait and drive home tomorrow so I could get some sleep. Tomorrow can't come soon enough as I can't wait to be home and off work for two whole weeks!
