You were born silent.
Perfect and beautiful.
Still loved.
Still missed.
Still remembered.
Everyday.
Stillborn.
But Still Born.

Thinking of precious Kinsley today on her angelversary.

Halloween is one of those holidays that can feel hard on your heart as it is centered around children. It can be difficult to find joy or want to celebrate what is supposed to be a fun day when you are missing your baby, especially if this is the first one since your loss. Perhaps you can use today to treat yourself to something you will enjoy or do a random act of kindness in honor of your baby. Whatever your heart leads you to do or not do, be gentle with yourself.

We would love to hear how you spend Halloween, or how you have spent it in the past, if you would like to share.

A beautiful poem by Jennifer Giles

This is the story
Of a pumpkin of white
What is its place on this autumn night?
Amidst all the orange and colors of fall
It seems out of place; not belonging at all
But oh what a place, and oh what a story
You see, in its face lies the image of glory

Of babies so small, so incredibly tiny
Perfect in purpose, their souls shining brightly
No less a baby, a child just the same
As one who was held and called by their name
Was my baby a he?
Or was she a she?
What would my child have grown up to be?
Yet bigger than questions and what ifs and whys
Is the comfort they feel when they look to the skies
For their hope is the truth that they so tightly cling
โ€œIโ€™ll know all the answers, understand everything
on the day that God hands my child back to meโ€

This pumpkin is sweet baby boys and girls
Who never opened their eyes to this world
Never cried, never feared
Protected from pain
Touched by their innocence
Weโ€™re never the same
Lives perfect and pure
All things lovely and sweet
And we honor them here
โ€˜Till heaven we meet

This pumpkin is all of the sweet little ones
Whose lives although short were covered in love
In kisses and snuggles, rocking and playing
Their parents not knowing they wouldnโ€™t be staying
But the time that they had they would never trade
Even if they could be saved from the pain
Their cribs may be empty, but the promise remains
One day theyโ€™ll hold their babies again

This pumpkin is for all these sweet angel friends
Whose parents all know this isnโ€™t the end
And how they are doing
Tonight up in heaven
Is better than anything we could imagine
Though weโ€™re missing our children
And weโ€™re still on this side
Our hearts will continue to swell with pride
At the special, the wondrous, the out of place things
Like this white pumpkin, and the joy that it brings
A reminder that our children are more than alive
They are perfectly whole, all things are made right

Angel parents, I know thereโ€™s still tears to be shed
But I hope that this pumpkin brings peace instead
Our babies are promised forever in heaven
And thatโ€™s the best gift we could ever be given.
