Infant and Pregnancy Loss Awareness

Today is a day that has been picked out nationally for us to remember the losses of the smallest ones in our life, be they before we held them or soon after. At 7pm across the US light a candle for an hour in remembrance of those who have gone before, and those who may come again.
This day remind me of something from Baby Catcher. About how her son comforted her through her own miscarriage, explaining to her that she now had a spirit baby. And it would come to her again, and was waiting to come to her again. Whenever I hear of an infant or pregnancy loss, this story shines brightly to me as a light in the dark.
