INTERNATIONAL BABYLOST MOTHER'S DAY

Yesterday was International Babylost Mother's Day. This is a day that was created by Carly Marie Dudley to celebrate all the wonderful women in the world who have lost their baby/ies. You can go HERE to read more about it. Carly has created a wave of healing through her generosity and kindness. She truely is inspirational. Mother's and Father's Day are very difficult holidays for bereaved parents to endure, so this day is a day that we who have lost our little ones can remember that we are indeed STILL mothers, even if our child/ren aren't with us in this life. I hope yesterday was a peaceful and good day for all of you fellow mother's missing your babies. May peace be with you. XOXO

WAYLON'S POEM

My Angel Baby Waylon

I knew I loved you right from the start,

The first time I saw your beating heart.

I cherished feeling you every day,

Kicking and squirming your time away.

No one would have guessed, the news that we would bear,

Your life had been taken, so sudden, so unfair.

I never got to see your bright blue eyes,

Or feel your warmth, or hear your cries.

All I have are dreams of you,

Those of which, will never come true.

My heart broke the day that I knew,

Your daddy and I would never meet you.

I had made plans, had dreams and such,

If only I’d known I was dreaming too much.

I never thought that heaven would take you away from me so soon.

But, I'll never forget that dismal day,

so sacred and so true.

Somehow I knew something was not right,

And through many tears I would have to fight.

A day filled with love and happiness,

Yet so much grief and pain.

I seemed to cry for hours, at the mere thought of your

honorable name.

Now, all I do is dream at night,

about life with you, and what that would be like.

What if you had been born alive?

All we can do is grieve and strive,

To remember you every single day,

Hold on to our memories in every single way.

We can ask how and why so much,

we never got to feel your touch.

And all we can do is face the fact,

There were reasons unknown, and that’s that.

Because we know you're where you need to be,

Even though it isn't here with me.

You are my angel baby, because God picked you.

Now, forever with his angels,

He’ll take good care it’s true.

You left this earth too soon I know,

But I will see you in rainbows, in birds and snow.

My love for you is unconditional and strong,

And I’ll meet you in heaven,

even though it seems like so long.

My angel baby you will always be,

In my heart forever, eternally a part of me.

-J.S.

In memory and honor of my angel, my son,
