Tomorrow is October 15th International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance
Day, at 7pm please take a moment to light a candle and think of the
babies we lost and the many other babies who were taken too soon. RIP to our little ones, gone but not forgotten....

I think it would be lovely to take a picture of the candle/s that we light and post them here. I was going to make a siggy that shows them all then

Also this is optional just an idea but you could put a paper with your angels name and/or dates in front of the candle.

That's a wonderful idea.

I was planning on taking a picture...I can only light candles if i'm home...I'm kind of upset because my daughter is going to a birthday party from 6-8...I'm going to ask the mom if she can bring her home...I hope so.

I'm going to light 3 candles, one for each baby I lost, and then 2 extra candles...1 for all the babies on the TTCAL board, and one for all the babies of the stillbirth board.

That is so sweet Megan

Yeah I thought it would be neat to make an animated siggy with them saying remembering the angels of the TTCAL board.

Aww Shortcake. Such a wonderful idea. I will definitly be lighting a candle and thinking of all the ladies of TTCAL.

I cried just reading this. I plan to light a candle for my bean, as well as all of my new TTCAL friends.

I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do.

This was last year, I don't think I have the energy for that. So not sure what I'm going to do.

I will definitely be lighting a few candles. I will try to take a picture, but my camera doesn't have batteries right now (I need to get rechargables, but constantly forget at the store) so if I get batteries I will post em.

Do you mind if I post this on facebook? Just the first paragraph.

I have a candle in my siggy that is dedicated to my 3 baby angels & all of your angels. The date of my angels are 11/9/08(twins) m/c
& baby angel on 5/30/10. m/c

I'm doing just a simple ceremony tonight. I'm going to get a picture of it though. No matter what! Tomorrow, i'm going to do something a little more for it. I was really busy today and don't have enough time to do what I really wanted, so i'll do that tomorrow.

The candle on the left is for all of the JM angels. Our little beans ultrasound picture, along with a picture hubby drew of our baby. The angel in the back is one that was given to be after my niece passed. The small one was given to me when I had my MC by one of my Mum's best friends. I bought the bigger one with the angel laying down it says "now I lay me down to sleep."

HUGS TO ALL!

Mine isn't anything extravagant. I used a heart candle b/c all of our babies are in our hearts forever!

BeccaM · #18 October 15th, 2010, 06:03 PM

Top one is for all the JM angels and second photo was for DH and I to remember walnut.

JessP · #19 October 15th, 2010, 07:28 PM

Here are the ones I did for all of us. Sorry I didn't do everyones names. I copied someone elses idea. I also lit our angles candles a second time to let the kids make a wish for each angel and blow out the candle.
