    I Didn’t Light A Candle, A Poem For My Unborn Baby…

    07/14 / No Comments

    I wrote this some time ago and while it isn’t October, there is always a time to honor and remember. I didn’t light a candle I let the memory live inside It is not that I forgot Because I couldn’t if I tried Time has passed But the pain is still real No matter how much I try I imagine you still Your tiny hands Tiny feet The bundle of joy I never had a chance to meet I know one day We will walk together I will hold you and love you And it will be forever I didn’t light a candle….

    A Time to Celebrate, A Time to Mourn

    10/04 / 2 Comments

While I was hesitant to write anything about it I realized I am allowed to celebrate and allowed to be upset still. While I am incredibly blessed to have such an amazing little boy, I know in heaven we have a son or a daughter that wasn’t ready to leave. I will always wonder and I know that one day we will meet.

This term is given to these special rainbow babies because a rainbow typically follows a storm, giving us hope of what’s to come. First I would like to say I am so sorry for your loss. I know you are probably sick of hearing this by now but…
