Remembering...

This weekend we attended Walk to Remember. It is an event to remember babies lost because of miscarriage, late term miscarriage, stillbirth, or death prior to one year of life. October is not only Breast Cancer awareness month, but it is also Infant Loss awareness month.

It was a very special day. This group all gathered to love & support each other, and to get to remember the little ones that have been lost early in thier lives.

It is amazing the conflicting emotions it stirred up. Sadness and heartache for all who lost little ones, but especially those lost after they were born and named. How impossibly hard that must be for them each and every day. From this dispair to the completely opposite emotion of hope looking at all the other children running around so full of energy and my personal gratefulness and total love because Tyce was there, my pure joy!

A balloon was release in commemoration of a loss. This was a way to remember the little angels that entered our lives for such a short moment. I want to thank Janine for inviting us to participate in this event.
