As you know, October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. All across the world, people will be lighting candles at 7pm in their time zone so that a continuous wave of light will circle the globe in memory of our precious babies, gone too soon.

I have donated my personalized jewelry pieces to these special ladies who are hosting their own remembrance services and giveaways on their blogs.

Stacy of He Will Carry Me is the mother of Isaac, born and passed away after 16 minutes from congenital birth defects. Stacy will pray for whomever shares their angel name or story on her blog post. My Baby Footprints Personalized Necklace will be given away to one lucky winner:

Sue - I truly appreciate your willingness to give to others. Thank you for providing us with new resources and blogs to visit. I feel a sense of comfort knowing that I am not alone - though I wish none of us had to go through a loss. I will be lighting a candle for Brendan tonight. He is my identical twin boy who was removed from life support 3 days after birth due to a grade 4 brain bleed and perforated lungs. His twin, Leo, is doing beautifully at 1.5 yrs old, especially for a 25 weeker. I will also light a candle for all my friends singleton and twin babies who have become angels. Big hugs to you Sue.

Sue, your work amazes me. I admire you and appreciate how you have helped us all remember our precious angels.

I have posted this on the three websites- what a great way for me to remeber my little ones.

I am posting this in memory of my oldest child, Christopher Michael Sanders, who died in April, 1975. Not a days goes by that I do not think of him. After his tragic death, we lost 5 other children,, one lived 20 minutes, one lived one hour, and three were stillborn. I am so thankful for our daughter, Allison, who turns 29 today. Goodbye my sweet babies, I hold you close to my heart.

Blessings,

Hi Sue! I'm stopping by again! :)

A couple more hours and I will be lighting my candle to remember Jordan and Carleigh. I also stopped by the florist and picked up 3 balloon-one blue, one pink, and one white-to release for all the babies who have been lost to us. They deserve to be remembered and I thank you allowing so many parents to do that with your jewelry.
