Wave of Light 2010

I have a lot to share tonight on the eve of OCT 15th.

First a reminder that tomorrow is the Wave of Light


please take that hour to remember my daughter or another child you know that a family has lost.

"Approximately 25,000 stillbirths are reported every year and represents 60% of all perinatal mortality in the US." (http://www.acog.org/from_home/publications/press_releases/nr02-20-09-2.cfm) If these babies were dying after birth it would be an epidemic. Help us raise awareness light a candle for one hour and remember these precious children.

Also My favortire parenting website published a new article

Julie did a great job sharing how our family and others honor their babies.
