Today we are remembering Blakes twin Hailey. We have been without her for 6 years and miss her greatly every day..
Thank you for sharing the details of the Wave of Light. I briefly saw that somewhere and couldn't get the information. I will be certain to light a candle tonight for all my friend's children.
Remembering sweet Carleigh
My name is Cheryl and I will will honoring my daughter, Megan Elizabeth tonight by lighting a candle for her. I carried her with love for 33 weeks and she was born an angel on April 16,2009. Forever in our heart and soul...missing and loving you Megan. Mommy, Daddy, big brothers Ryan and Nathan
Today I will be lighting a candle and remembering Trinadee and all the other angel babies. Today is also the 1 month anniversary of her birth and becoming an angel.
That necklace says so much. I would feel so honored to wear that in memory of Isaiah. People hardly ever speak his name, and I would love to show that he is on my mind throughout every single day that I am here on this earth. I am very emotional lately. I'm sure that the birth of Ezekiel tommorrow is playing a big part in that emotion. It's bitter sweet. That necklace would be a nice reminder to all... that I have not forgotten.
Love,
Jenny
Thinking of you today, Holly... Hugs!
Thinking of you and you sweet angel. I am lighting candles tonight for everyone.
If you don't mind I would love if you could add our forum for grieving dads link to your helpful links page?

We are lighting candles to remember our daughter Isabella Liahanna Miller born sleeping May 24th 2008, she had a heart attack during labor and passed away, as well as other angels that have passed
I have an idea for doing something special tonight... I hope it will work out. I will be always remembering my sweet Freja and my friend's babies who have all really touched me over the past months.
One year ago today, Ella was conceived. At that time, I had no idea that this day was Pregnancy Loss Awareness Day. I'm going to go out today and buy a special candle to light tonight for Ella and all of her friends. Thinking of Carleigh today!
Today I am lighting a candle for our son Seth. He was born March 27, 2008 with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He went to Heaven on Oct. 12, 2008 (making it a year just this week). I love the poem you shared in an earlier post as sometimes I can not believe how much I still miss Seth. I can handle it thinking of God leaving that there so I look forward to Heaven!
I will be lighting a candle for Brendan, my identical twin son born at 25 weeks, 2 days. He lived for 3 days. He had a grade 4 brain bleed, perforated lungs, and weakening heart. We decided to take him off life support - the hardest decision a mommy has to make. His brother is 1.5 yrs old and is doing wonderfully. I will also be lighting a candle for all my friends who have either lost a singleton or a twin. Thank you for sharing your story with us and inspiring others.
sorry for the above post..my computer was acting silly.
Such a sweet way to remember. Today I am thinking of my sweet Jennifer
Wanted to stop by and tell you I was thinking of you today. May your day be special as you honor your angels. I also wanted to say that one of my other blogger friends posted the story on the Tennessee family that you blogged about a while ago whose son was born and only lived two minutes and they don't want to issue a birth certificate. Well, I guess people can sign the petition even if they don't live in TN, so I signed it and was so glad I was able to lend my support to that.
What a special day and special way to honor little ones across the globe.
I am so glad I found your blog. It is just great. We are remembering our angel Ryan Matthew. He passed at 8 weeks due to a brain injury suffered during heart surgery to repair one of many of his birth defects. May God bless you and bring you peace.
Today we are remembering our 2 angel babies and lighting candles for them and all the other angel babies. Thinking of you and Carleigh and Jordan today & prayers always.

Today I am remembering my sweet William who was born sleeping on December 13th 2005. I have no doubt that he is looking after the 6 brothers and sisters there with him and his 3 brothers and sister down here on earth.
I will pray for all the lost babies today
Thinking of you on this special day!
Today I will be remebering my daughter Hayden. Born last May sleeping at 23 weeks. We miss her so much!
Lots of little ones will be remembered today for sure. ((hugs))
Remembering Dylan, today and every day! Thank you.

Today I am remembering our sweet baby we lost in 2007 at 8 weeks. Not a day goes by that we don't think of our precious little one.
I will be lighting a candle tonight in memory of Carleigh and all the babies who left too soon.
The necklace is beautiful! We will be remembering Ryleigh Elizabeth Hope born sleeping on March 17, 2009. She will be forever missed and loved by everyone.
Lisa and Eric J.

Karen
I will be remembering my little angel. Miscarried at 7 weeks. July 2006.
I will be remembering my son Kasey. Who fought 33 days before earning his wings.
I miss you punkin!!!
I am so sorry for your loss. I find it so couragous that you decided to carry your daughter to term. After my son was born I wanted to donate all that I could to other babies in need. Unfortunately nothing was able to be donated. Today I am remembering my son, Kaiden Robert, born at 39 weeks. His cord wrapped around his neck twice. Such a perfect baby with no chance to live. xoxoshells.webs.com is a site I made in his memory. Thank you for sharing your wonderful site!
Remembering with you...much love and prayers, sweet friend...
Today I remember my sweet Peyton Elizabeth, gone too soon to cancer, and never forgotten. I remember my first pregnancy, lost to miscarriage. And I remember the babies of all the mothers in this community who have made such a difference in my life these past months, with their support and understanding. Your sweet little Carleigh will be among those in my prayers tonight, as she is often.
Peace
Remembering Carleigh today x
We lit candles to remember Alex, he was born 2nd April 2009 with anen. and two other little ones.
Thanks Natalie

Hi Holly,
I am remembering Faith today. We were able to hold her in our arms and know that she was real. I am also remembering 2 babies that I lost through miscarriage. The first was in 1985 at 13 weeks and the other was in 1992 at 9 weeks. I long for the day that I reunited with them!
Blessings,
Karen
Today I am remembering one of my good friends babies. He passed away at two months old from shaken baby caused by his father. Today he would actually be turning 4 as well, its his birthday. :( I don't understand how his mom goes by every single day but I praise her for doing so. I am also remembering my baby that I lost at 5 weeks and 6 days.
Today I am remembering Vayden James. My lil angel born May 23,2009. He lived for 3 hrs and 45 min, but he's touched the lives of more than some 80 yr olds.
Tonight we are remembering Morgan, who was born on September 8th, 2008. She died of unknown causes. We are also remembering Baby Blumpy, who we lost 1 week ago today. Our angels are all flying high...
Hi Holly, as you know I will be remembering my Greyson who i just lost 3 months ago today. I havent been able to get a necklace yet for my Greyson. I will also be remembering my girlfriends dear daughter who she lost 1 year ago after just 5 short days with her. Thanks so much for all your support through this hard time.
Tonight I am remembering Baby 1~January 2008, Baby 2~ March 2008, and Baby 3~May 2009. Thank you Holly for all that you do for so many people!
I don't want to be entered in to the giveaway, just to send a hug your way and let you know I'm lighting a candle!
I light one candle for Wyatt. Joseph and I used our unity candle from our wedding. We thought it was fitting...
I also light a single candle to remember all the babies of my friends... I'll post pictures later. It didn't feel right not to light one for Carleigh and all the other babies as well... I feel like I've gotten to know them so well as I read the stories of thier lives through their mothers :)
I am remembering Avery Morgan, miscarried 5.6.08 and missed every day.
I am lighting a candle for the first time for our daughter, Lily Elaine, born into the arms of God at 11 wks pregnancy from Trisomy 21 on 5/5/09.
I am thankful for sites like this to allow those of us to not feel so alone when grieving the loss of child.
Lily Elaine will always forever in my heart be my first child and I am thankful for the gift of her life that God gave me. It was much shorter than I anticipated yet, I know she if fulfilling a bigger purpose in heaven.
I am remembering my Amiee
I lit my candles tonight too ... they are still burning. What a beautiful sight to see so many candles lit around the world! Remembering Carleigh and Jordan too along with all angel babies!
Today I am remembering all the lost babies of the women I have met online as well as those of ones I know IRL. Personally, I remember Janet Susan Barton, my sister, Meredith, my daughter, Joshua Myers, my nephew, and Cason Adams, my cousin. All of these losses are sad, but Cason really tugs at my heartstrings as he accidentally smothered in bed with his parents in 2001.God bless all of you who have losses.

It's been just over a year since I lost my baby Gabriel Eric to Anencephaly. I miss him dearly. I wrote this poem in memory of him:
Upon discovering him, tears flowed
out of fear. Uncertainty looming
ominously over her. She loved
with all and smiled happily knowing
they would grow together. Filled
with joy, her heart was a bird soaring
high. In three months, turbulence ended
their time together, abruptly cutting
her soul in two. The words echoed
through her head, “Saving
is impossible” and “A life risked
for nothing is worthless.” Everything
left meaningless by prayers unanswered.
She was alone, her spirit shattering
in the cold darkness. Frightened,
the eternal emptiness tearing
her slowly apart. A secret summoned
often by the recollection of his beating
heart; a heart that will always be remembered.
