In Memory… *Updated*

Tonight a little after midnight would have been my first child’s 11th birthday. She was a full term stillborn. You would think the mourning would get easier over the years but it doesn’t.

This year Aaron and I are doing a very good job in communicated our feelings about the baby. We started a little ceremony tonight that I hope we will continue each year to remember our daughter on this night. We read several verses of Psalms and lit a candle as well. We spent some time just sharing our feelings and thoughts about her. It was very healing for both of us.

Happy 11th birthday my dear daughter Nechama. I know that you are in a very happy place and can’t wait to meet you again after 120…

Aaron wrote a beautiful post on his new website. Thanks for sharing your feelings honey.
