I thought I would share our tribute from last night, which was October 15, also now known to me as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day.
We have had these beautiful rose petal candles for awhile now. I knew I wanted to use them in some way to represent our losses and/or babies.
Rather than lighting at 7 p.m. like many did around the world, I lit close to midnight. I had no idea how hard it would be to light them. Forget lighting being hard, blowing them out was by far the hardest part.
I had my husband blow out the last candle, in the center, baby blue for our sweet Isaiah.
I was thinking of all of you out there last night who lit candles too.

You’re so right. Blowing them out is a moment of drowning… Deep breaths and all the best to you.

Simply beautiful. I let our candle burn until it burned itself out, it just seemed easier that way.

Beautiful! We did a fire in the fireplace vs. a candle. I don’t think J even realized what the day was and he wasn’t in a great place that night so I just enjoyed the fire on my own, thinking about our little one.
