A night of remembrance
We lit our candle tonight. Just Aiden and I here at home.
I ran to the store to pick up some stuff super quick to make Cameron is own special candle. I had about 10-15 minutes to make it, but it turned out cute! I got it made just in time to light it.
We went over and put it in the window. As soon as it hit 7:00, I lit the wick. The moment I lit it, both Aiden and I said, "Cameron, I love you." My eyes started tearing up just hearing him say that. I looked at him and he was just staring at the candle like he was expecting Cameron to come out of it or something. At that point, I started bawling. He just looked at me and said, "You're crying mommy." I told him it was because I missed Cameron. He didn't say anything, but just leaned over and gave me a hug. I squeezed him so tight and told him how glad I was to have him and how much I loved him. He pulled back and took his hand and brushed it across my cheek, wiping my tears off. All he said was, "It's OK."
He's such a sweetheart! He can be a huge stinker at times, but he's very sensitive to others feelings. He loves his little brother and he senses how much I love him too. I just wish he could be meeting Cameron come December...
I'm thinking about each and every one of our babies tonight! I can only imagine how many candles are lit around the world for them tonight...

That is so beautiful! I love your special candle and that you shared with Aiden.
Your candle turned out great. I'm so glad you got to have that moment for Cameron. I know your other son will always feel how loved he is. I thought about you a lot yesterday. Hugs.
Just thought I would drop in and say, "Hi." Your candle was beautiful, what a special moment you and Aiden shared. For some reason, I have been thinking of you today..hope you are doing well....
