October 15, 2009

Today is pregnancy and infant loss day.. at 7 pm tonight, everyone is asked to light a candle of those babies gone too soon.. I know we don't need a candle to remember her.. we remember her with every breath we take.. But it is nice for the day to be recognized..



"When God sends forth a little soul
To learn the ways of earth
A mothers love is waiting there
We call this miracle birth
When God call back a tiny soul
And stills a fleeting breath
A fathers love is waiting there
This too is birth, not death."

what a beautiful area you set up for your candle to remember sweet Ella. She was such a cute little baby, I am so, so very sorry that she is not here with you.
