Another year. This is my third wave of light. How has my sweet little boy been gone over 2 years? It just doesn't make sense.
Time is a blessing. Bad days are still excruciating, but they tend to sneak up less often. Not a single day goes by that CJ isn't on my mind from the moment I wake up until I cry myself to sleep. Can you imagine? My heart never gets to take a break. But my soul is learning to love him in ways that are less painful.
This wave of light is such a comfort. It remind me that I'm not alone along with an opportunity to selfishly focus on CJ outloud for a change. a few years have sneaked out as I read my newsfeed full of memorials to friends' babies. So many beautiful, warrior moms who I have met on this journey. Our angels are our common link, and I'm blessed to know every one of them.
Can you simply light a candle tonight in support of so many hurting souls tonight? If you are personally struggling through your own loss, know that you are not alone. My prayers will included all those struggling silently as well as us loud mouths. Tonight is simply about the babies...
Love to each and every one of you!
