Caring For Your Child's Headstone

I thought I'd post some information about headstone care since it's something that we have been working on lately.  Our daughter's headstone gets dirty often because it's under a tree.  It also started to tilt and we recently fixed that by adding a level layer of small pebbles underneath her stone to even it out.  I recently came across another site that endorsed using WD-40 to shine the granite on her child's headstone.  I have not tried that yet, but I'm going to try it on a small spot to see if it really works.  We've done Windex before, but it dulls pretty quickly.

I'm also going to include some info from memorial sites that talk about caring for headstones.  Sad that we even have to think about that, but it's still our reality.
