Amanda's Candle for Nehemiah


Amanda is one of my Sisters in Christ that I met on Cafemom around the time I lost Nehemiah. She has been a blessing and I thank the Lord for blessing me with her. We both went thru miscarriages in March. Mine was March 22nd and hers was March 26th. She named her angel baby in Heaven~Noah Joel. We both know Nehemiah & Noah are together rejoicing with our Lord & Savior and we can't wait to be able to meet them one day when its our time. The candle I lit (picture on my post from yesterday) was for all of the angel babies in Heaven.


She lit a candle for Nehemiah. Thank you Amanda...


Blessings to you and your family!

Beautiful Creations

I work next to 2 ladies that started a new project in their store. It's a machine that places pictures, words, poems, etc... on crystal. When I saw them I just fell inlove with the beautiful creations they had made since they are promoting this new "toy" in their business. I know that it was made with love and I know as they made the 2 things I wanted Nehemiah was able to touch their hearts.

This is a ornament for our Christmas Tree but right now its hanging on my husband & wife silhouette on my dresser. I found this picture of an baby angel on a cloud with a halo and stretching. How magnificient of how our baby angels may look in Heaven.... It says Nehemiah on the top and on the bottom it says "In the arms of our Heavenly Father on March 22, 2008." If anyone is interested let me know and I can get you one made and I will let you know the prices.






The other creation is a necklace of my ultrasound of Nehemiah when he was "active" in my womb. This was my first ultrasound where the heartbeat was 134. The crystal they used is shaped just like your ultrasound comes out on paper. Amazing... I wore it today for the 1st time.
These gifts came in handy at the right time!
Thanks Darlene & Nicole!!!


You Light Up My Life



Here is my candle I lit for my precious angel in Heaven~Nehemiah. As I sat and watched the flame all I could think of was "I wonder what Nehemiah thought of all those beautiful candles on in rememberance of us angels."




All I could think of was the song "You Light Up My Life" that was sung to us at our wedding when we lit our unity candle. How the Lord has lit up my life with salvation, my husband, and a perfect little angel in Heaven! How the words go "You give me hope to carry on." Amazing how a song can just melt your heart into pieces.




Lord help me as I struggle each day and try to walk next to you. Thanks to all these Sisters in Christ that you have put in my path. Thank you Lord that today we can all come together as mothers to angels in Heaven and be able to be in silence. I love you Lord. You are so worthy. In Jesus Name, Amen.




This 2nd candle is from my cousin Melina (thank you Melina for texting me your candles).







My Mom's Candle


Since my mom has been in the hospital with my grandma she read my email to light a candle at 7 p.m. tonight to remember our angels.


She lighted one a day earlier since she didn't know when she would be home. Thank to our Heavenly Father grandma will be home today to light a candle for our angels!


Here is my mom's candle from yesterday that I edited...


Wave a Light Today!

As I sit here at work and think of this special day of being able to light a candle for our angels in Heaven I just think of all our angels poking there heads out of the clouds to see all the bright lights from the candles and how excited they are knowing that we are remembering all of them today! I will keep each of you in my prayers tonight as I light my candles. May everyone feel Gods comfort for an hour.

I love you Nehemiah - March 22, 2008

I love you Baby Cortes - August 22, 2008 (my sister has an angel awaiting her)

And to all my friends with angels in Heaven I love all of your angels as well....

XOXOXOXOXOXO precious angels....

He is Merciful!

Well the results came in from the 2nd scan they did on my Abuela (grandma in Spanish) and there is NO blood clot and there was NEVER a blood clot. Hmmmmm who read the 1st results?? Ok so she is going home today and is feeling better already. She has episodes of fainting because of her blood sugar level since she has diabeties but has had a few strokes.

My mom called and the tone of her voice was estatic!!! I love seeing/hearing Christ in her....

I thank you all for lifting up my Abuela in your prayers!

Lord God I praise You for working your miracle! In Jesus Christ name, Amen!

He prepared me...

Today was a good and quiet day... I was feeling alright while at work and when I got home I just felt down. With having gone thru a miscarriage I usually feel this way every now and then. It's a really odd feeling even though. It's like something is wrong in my heart but I just don't know how to explain what I feel. I just want to be by myself and if I cry I cry and if I just want to be quiet then so be it. Well today was that day when I got home. I started cleaning around the house and then hubby came home and I just ran upstairs for some peace and quiet (with the dogs). I went to lay down in bed just to read the Bible and my puppy decided he wanted to be up on the bed with his mommy. He is HUGE (40 lbs.) and acts like a baby. So I let him and it was if he could feel how my heart was feeling. He laid next to me and just stayed there until it was bed time. I got up and put them in their beds and came back upstairs to get ready for the night. My cell phone rang as I lay in bed to read Ecclesiastes (sp?). It was my Mom and she sounded tired. She tells me that my grandmother is in the hospital. This is something that happens every so often because she is a diabetic and has had a few strokes. She mentioned a blood clot in one of her lungs and right there I knew the Lord had started to prepare me for this. Isn't God amazing at how he prepares you to hear something?! He has done this to me more than once and I praise Him. I knew in my heart when I got home something was just not right! Thank you Lord for preparing me and keeping all of us in Your arms.
