What does it mean to remember a life that was far too short?

In this episode of The Sucky Sisterhood Podcast, Peyton sits down with Missy Thomas, Executive Director of Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, a nonprofit that provides remembrance photography for families experiencing the loss of a baby.

Missy is also a close friend of Peyton’s, and it was through the loss of Peyton’s son that she first experienced the impact of remembrance photography, a moment that deeply shaped the path that led her into this work.

Together, they talk about:

• The power of remembrance photography and why it matters
• What it looks like to enter into moments of deep grief
• How small moments can become lasting memories for families

Missy shares how this work became deeply personal and how it has grown into a calling to serve families in some of their most difficult moments. She offers insight into what it means to sit with grief, support parents as they say goodbye, and create space for them to parent their baby in the time they have.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that every baby matters, every story matters, and that being seen and remembered can make a lasting difference.
