On this special day, our family will be joining thousands of people around the globe in a candle-lighting ceremony at 7pm. This ceremony, in it's 9th year, is an opportunity for bereaved families everywhere to remember and celebrate the lives of children who have gone too soon.
Candles have been lit in our home since Renzo's passing, but participating with those who have unfortunately experienced the same was important. I used to think that is was a matter of "misery loves company", but admittedly, that attitude is just anger from within. As I stand side by side next to a person who knows the depth of our pain, I love and support my fellow brother or sister, as I know they do the same for us.
And, of course, I send my everlasting love to Renzo and all children who have passed on. This day would not be complete without a spiritual connection to Renzo. I've often said that I can choose to connect with him wherever I am, but the collective positive energy from the families who will attend the ceremony was important, contributing is very important. We love you Lorenzo.
