"A luminous light remains where a beautiful soul has passed."

A perfect quote to capture the beauty and meaning of the Wave of light which was yesterday, a day to remember all those little babies that have been taken from us to soon. I just can't even begin to imagine all the candles that were lit yesterday for these angels. The candle flame seems to hold so much beauty and peace to it, we use the same candle every year for Lola's birthday and this occasion.
It's getting smaller as the years go by and taking different shapes and molds, much like our grief.
Last night this candle had some wax leak onto the counter.  As the piece dried, I picked it up and looked like the shape of an angel wing!  I even asked JP what he saw- just to make sure I wasn't a little bit crazy! It made last night even more special for us....it's definitely Lola's candle.

There truly isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about Lola-it seems when I have a moment to myself she's the first thing that pops up. It's just that missing piece of your life....I think the wave of light gives us an extra special time to focus on her, to love, to grieve and to try to embrace her journey. It's also great to know we are not alone...

We love you so much Lola-

Mother of an Angel
