Hi everyone,
We'd like to observe a two minute silence at 9am tomorrow. It's the funeral of Maude - ggglimpopo's daughter.

You'll be able to view Mumsnet but not to post.

Love,
Mumsnet Towers

Lovely idea. Will observe at 9am your time. Will be 7pm our time and I will be putting my baby to bed.

I'll be between school/pre-school drop-offs, but I will think and remember.

Much love to ggg, maude and family. x

Thank you everyone at MN towers. I will sit and wait after dropping my children off at school. A time for reflection and a shared sense of loss.

RTKangaMummy · 09/01/2007 00:57

Thanks MN Towers

I won't be online but will have a 2 minute silence at home

Having experianced my baby sisters funeral i can sympathise with how horrific it is to see such a tiny coffin, yet i have no idea of what you are going through GGG.

I shall be thinking of you tomorrow at 9 as i have been since i heard this news.

good luck on your journey Maude, sweet dreams xx

sandcastles · 09/01/2007 02:22

I missed this, so missed a silence at my 9am today. I plan to sit down at 10.30pm (9am UK) and do it from here, with you all.

GGG, sending you love & strength. xx
