Moe,
It’s been a while so I wanted to stop by and say Hello and that I am thinking about you. :hug1:

Dearest Moe,
You are going through probably the most painful time of the year now with holidays coming up. My advice would be to go ahead and celebrate Christmas in a subdued way. You must, for Amanda’s sake, and for your own return to normalcy, although normal for you will never be the same.
**You can say that again… Amanda and Greg don’t want to have decorations or a tree or anything. They both already got their Christmas gifts … mine is coming. Amanda doesn’t want to wake up on Christmas and open gifts … life is so hard - our hearts are just broken. We will get a tree for McKayla’s Place … and I got solar Christmas Tree Lights. **
I pray for you often and for your family. I am holding you up to the Lord.
Thank you my friend … thank you from the bottom of my heart - how are things going for you … there is more than just our sorrow in the world - we all have our crosses to bear don’t weLoving you … Moe
Love,
Lissa
Dearest Moe: I have been thinking about you lately and wanted to say sorry I haven’t been around. I have been in a slump lately, but I am back. I am praying for you.
**Thanks Lori … are you ok? This time of year is so hard on so many people isn’t it. It is so hard … I shall keep you in my prayers my friend.
Not only is Christmas coming - but KK’s 14th birthday is Dec 20 … dread thinking about it … I am not strong these days – very weak … I only pray I can be strong enough to face this horrible reality.
Huggles, Moe**
Hugs, Lori
**Thank you StratusRose - how are you feeling with that wonderful miracle growing inside you … I remember I was so happy being pregnant … just loved it.Moe,

Held annually the second Sunday in December, this year December 9, The Compassionate Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting unites family and friends around the globe in lighting candles for one hour to honor and remember children who have died at any age from any cause. As candles are lit at 7 p.m. local time, hundreds of thousands of persons commemorate and honor children in a way that transcends all ethnic, cultural, religious, and political boundaries.
The Worldwide Candle Lighting is a gift from The Compassionate Friends to the bereavement community allowing us all to join together in unity to remember and honor the memories of all children so they may never be forgotten.
Believed to be the largest mass candle lighting on the globe, the Worldwide Candle Lighting creates a virtual 24-hour wave of light as it moves from time zone to time zone. Hundreds of formal candle lighting events are held and thousands of informal candle lightings are conducted in homes as families gather in quiet remembrance of special children to always be remembered.
The Worldwide Candle Lighting started in the United States in 1997 as a small Internet observance but, as it has been embraced by the bereavement community, has swelled in numbers as word has spread throughout the world of the remembrance. A memorial message board is available during the event at TCF’s USA website compassionatefriends.org/. Thousands of postings are received each year from all over the United States, as well as dozens of other countries, with many messages in foreign languages.
For many of the years of the Worldwide Candle Lighting, the United States Senate has joined in its observance through the unanimous passage of resolutions declaring the second Sunday in December National Children’s Memorial Day. TCF/USA appreciates our government’s understanding of what the Worldwide Candle Lighting means to so many.
The Worldwide Candle Lighting gives bereaved families everywhere the opportunity to remember their child . . . that their light may always shine!
Wow, Moe. I’ll bet it’s a great comfort to you that KK had a good priest there with her in her final hours when you couldn’t be. I think that’s a great blessing.NEW PAGES FOR MCKAYLA …
