Wave of Light
Today I light a candle to honor my Casper, and all the babies who died too soon.
My candle carries Casper's name as well as the names of several other babies who have become special to me. Their mommies are some of the people who mean the world to me.
I lit my candle this morning at 7 am, and plan to leave it burn until it is all gone. That will include the hour between 7 and 8 pm.
Casper, you lit up my life for the short time you were here, and your light will shine in my heart until the end of time.
I need to update this. Tonight a dear friend of mine from high school posted a couple pictures to my Facebook page in honor of today - Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day.
He lit all the candles around 6:30 pm, and left them lit while he did a workout. Then he blew all of them but one out, leaving a light shine for Casper.
His response to my message of gratitude was this - "The light that on my deck that these 55 candles was putting out was amazing and beautiful, just like your angel. You're welcome."
