Light a candle for our babies...

Today, October 15, is the National Day of Remembrance for pregnancy and infant loss. It has been suggested that grieving parents and family members light a candle at 7 p.m. in their respective time zones to create a wave of light around the world in memory of babies lost to pregnancy and infant loss.

I personally was not aware of this until I saw it on another blog. It may seem that there is a "National Day" for about anything we can think of. However, this one tugs on my heart. As many of you know, we have 2 little ones, who I believe we'll see again someday. I'm also sure all of us know many who have experienced losses at various stages of pregnancy and early infancy, but the "common-ness" of it does not take away the pain that is felt over each individual loss. I hope this touches your heart and you will remember all those babies that have gone before us and remember to pray for family and friends who continue to grieve.
