For the last couple years on October 15th, we honored and prayed for many families who lost a baby or child. And, I would like to do it again this year. I hope you will join us. Here is an excerpt from last year's post:
October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. I have met so many beautiful families through Walking With You, this blog, and through Sufficient Grace Ministries. Your stories have touched my heart, and I want to remember each one of your precious babies. Every life is precious in the eyes of the Lord. Every life has value and purpose. While I have prayed for everyone who has crossed my path, it would be nice to have a list to pray for all in one place...with names and birth dates (and heavenly home-going dates). I thought it would be special for us to compile a list of our precious babies and post it here on October 15th. So, if you are a mother who has lost a baby/child and would like to include your family on our list, please leave your information in the comments below or email it to me at sufficientgraceministries@gmail.com. If your information is on last year's list, please note I will be including those previously listed and just adding any new names and re-posting the list.
Even if we've never met (in real life or blog land!), you are welcome to participate. We want to remember all of the precious babies and their families. On that special day, I will post the list here and pray throughout the day for each of you...as we remember together. If you would like to help us spread the word on your blog so that we could include more families, please feel free! If you would like to include your child on the October 15th Remembrance Page, please leave the following in the comments below (on this post):

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Psalm 139:13-16
I'd be honored to be included in your giveaway!! Thank you!

"They say there is a reason...
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way we feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried,
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without."

Rest in peace sweet baby boy. I was blessed to be able to be with you for your first and last moments in life. The greatest joy in my life was holding you in my arms. A feeling that I will never forget. Until we meet again.
Love You Always,
Mommy
Haydn's Memorial Prayer
Dear Gracious Heavenly Father,
Thank you for all those near and dear to us who have gone before us. Today we remember them, cherish the good, forgive the bad and look forward to your return when we will all be together in Heaven. Thank you for the gift of salvation through your Son, Jesus Christ, without whom none of us could enter your kingdom. Sin separates us from you. That you have made a way for us to be with you in eternity, what amazing grace! Please be with all of those today who mourn the passing of a loved one, someone close to them who was here and gone in the blink of an eye, as are we all. Comfort, uplift, and grant us your peace to move forward and live our lives according to your will, to keep your commandments and to look forward to your soon second coming. All these things in Jesus’ precious name we pray, Amen.
“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him...For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:and the dead in Christ shall rise first...Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14, 16, 18
“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.” Revelations 21:4-5

John 14: 1-4
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Dear Heather,
My arms long to hold you and your twin brother because I never got the chance to...I carried you both for only 13 weeks, but I will carry you both forever in my haert...I miscarried Hunter and Heather at 13 weeks...I miss them each and everyday.

Psalms 56:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
This verse I clinged to while I carried my sweet baby girl Emily.I was told to terminate her because she was not compatible with life,I choose to carry her. I carried her for 35 weeks and 5 days she lived for 17 minutes...and lives forever more with the Lord Jesus Christ...that same day I ended up with a hysterectomy..I would do it all over again for those 17 minutes...I love you sweet baby and I long for the day I hold you and your siblings.
