I was walking on an old farm once and noticed a small stone that seemed to be standing up. I went over and looked, and faintly chiseled in the stone was the word “Baby.”

And this was likely from a time when many babies were lost.

Someone, no doubt, had stood there and grieved.

Touching story. And I have seen similar farm family gravestones.
