Greg Utton Accepted into "nilmdts"

Your first reaction is probably what the heck is "nilmdts" and what's the big deal. Well, it stands for:

"Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep"

This is organization was established approximately two years ago and now has grown to over 5,000 photographers world wide who have volunteered their talents and resources to provide a very special service to families of new born children who's time with us is very short. As we all know, these births are a mixture of joy combined with deep sorrow. "nilmdts" will provide a photographer to come in and create beautiful compassionate photographs in a sensitive manner. The soft, gentle heirloom photographs of these beautiful babies are an important part of the healing process, and these photographs allow the families to to honor and cherish their babies.

I have very briefly paraphrased the description of service provided by this organization above. I invite you to visit their website nowilaymedowntosleep.org and see more of what they do and why this is such an important endeavor.

Not everyone is accepted into this program and it is indeed "A Big Deal".
