Wave of Light 2026 🕯️

This candle was created with the names of every baby in the Angel Baby Club, while also holding space for the babies whose names were never submitted, those who remain unnamed, and every baby forever held close in their parents’ hearts.

The flowers surrounding the candle were chosen for their meaning. Forget-me-nots symbolize remembrance and the promise to never forget. White spider mums represent honesty, inner peace, and spiritual awakening. White daisies reflect purity, sincere love, and devotion.

In the background are cosmos that grew in the Angel Baby barrels this year, along with the gentle shine of an Angel Baby token. Each piece holds a little meaning, a little love, and a reminder of the babies who will always be part of our stories.

As Sara Rien’s words remind us, this light cannot take away the pain. It is a way of saying that you are seen, your grief does not need to be hidden, and your baby is honored, remembered, and loved.

Thank you for trusting me to carry your babies’ names and honor their memories. It is not something I take lightly. There is a weight in being entrusted with something so precious, and I hold that responsibility close to my heart.

To every parent remembering a baby, you are loved, your baby is loved, and they will not be forgotten. 🤍

I apologize for not sharing yesterday. I needed to take some space and time for myself and Fallon in the evening. I appreciate your understanding.

On October 15, we light a candle for the babies who will forever be part of our stories and carried in our hearts.

Whether you are remembering your own baby, honoring someone else’s, or standing beside someone you love, there is room for you in this Wave of Light.

You don’t need to do anything extravagant or find the perfect words to show your support. On October 15, all you need to do is light a candle at 7:00 p.m. in honor of your baby or someone else’s, whether you know that family personally or not. This simple act of remembrance carries more weight than you could ever imagine.

As a mother living in a world where my daughter is no longer physically here, I can tell you that the acts of remembrance and hearing her name are some of the things that help me get through each day.

And I don’t just mean on October 15. I mean every day.

Fallon is always on my mind and forever in my heart. She is not someone I can leave behind, ignore as if she never existed, or simply move on from, as so many people believe grief asks us to do. Her life mattered. Her life still matters. Even if the only people whose worlds she changed were her dad’s and mine, her life will always have meaning.

I know so many other parents who feel the same. Parents who carry their babies with them through every ordinary day, every milestone, every celebration, and every moment they wish their child could be here for. Many suffer in silence because of how society responds to their loss, their love, and their grief.

That is why remembrance matters. That is why saying their names matters. And that is why showing up matters.

This October 15, I encourage you to stand with your friends, your family, and even strangers. Show bereaved parents that their baby matters. Their love matters. And their grief, no matter how quietly or loudly it is carried, matters.

So, at 7:00 p.m. on October 15, light a candle. For your baby. For someone else’s baby. For a family who needs to know their child has not been forgotten.

One small light can remind a grieving parent that they are not alone.

Over the last couple of days, we’ve been working behind the scenes to create something very special. 🤍

190 little vases. 190 names. 190 babies from around the world who are deeply loved and forever remembered through our Angel Baby Club.
Each vase held the name of a baby whose family continues to carry them in their hearts. As these flowers make their way into the community, we’re asking each recipient to pay the kindness forward in memory of an angel baby — buy someone a coffee, pay for a meal, leave a generous tip, help someone who needs it, or simply do something kind.

Then pass the card along and let the kindness continue. 🤍

These vases have been handed out through some amazing local businesses SWEAT208💧 , Symmetry Sauna studio , Kyra Beamis Coeur d’Alene Idaho Realtor and Coeur OBGYN — along with a handful of people who picked up boxes to share with their friends, families, teachers and others in their lives.

🤍 One angel. One act of kindness. A ripple that can reach farther than we ever know. 🤍

I’ll be sharing individual photos of each vase and the beautiful babies they represent.

For privacy, only families who have an organization or remembrance page for their baby and gave permission for Fallon’s Flight to tag them were included on the cards. Personal accounts were not added to the cards, but I will tag those families in the background when their acts of kindness are shared and Fallons Flight is tagged.

Thank you to every business, individual and volunteer who is helping distribute these vases throughout our community and beyond, and helping us turn remembrance into kindness. 🤍A special shout out to Deanna Williams for donating the flowers

We can’t wait to see how far these little acts of kindness travel.

VOLUNTEER DAY — THIS SUNDAY!

This Sunday, we’re gathering together to spread a little kindness!

From 9 AM–12 PM, we’ll be picking up and preparing flowers to share throughout our community. Attached to each bouquet will be a Pay It Forward card in memory of an angel baby.

The hope is that one flower becomes more than a flower or good deed.

Maybe it goes to a friend who is struggling.
Maybe a stranger who needs a little encouragement.
Maybe a nurse who has had a difficult day.
Maybe just some beauty to brighten your day.

And then, hopefully, that person does the same for someone else.

One flower. One act of kindness. One story carried forward.

📅 Sunday | 9 AM–12 PM
📍 Message me for address — Hayden, ID
🌱Message or comment if you are able to come and for how many hours or if you just want to pick up some bouquets.

Come volunteer, bring a friend, pick up some flowers, and help us create a ripple of kindness throughout our community.

🌿 There is also a $500 sponsorship opportunity available for this remembrance. If you or a local business would like to help, make this day possible, please message me by Friday to ensure we can get tags made to include with the bouquets.

Thank you Deanna Williams for arranging the flowers for this remembrance. 💕

Morning Glory (September Birth Flower)

Morning glories represent renewal, fleeting beauty, and the promise of each new day. Their blooms open with the sun and fade quickly, reminding us that a presence, no matter how brief, still matters. In the language of flowers, morning glory has been associated with affection, vitality, spiritual awakening, and fleeting love.

There is something meaningful in that when we think about the language of flowers. A bloom does not have to last forever to be beautiful. A moment does not have to be long to matter. And love does not become smaller because the time was short.

Morning glories have been connected to mourning, farewell, and resurrection in memorial symbolism. Their vines continue to reach and climb while each bloom lasts for only a short time. There is something comforting in that even when a life has ended, love continues to reach beyond what we can see. What we have lost is still a part of us, still remembered, and still carried forward.

For NICU and Angel Baby families, time can be short but deeply meaningful. Our babies can change us in moments, not years, and those moments become part of everything that follows.

Like the morning glory, even the briefest moments leave lasting light. It reminds us that no matter the length of time something lasts it can still have a lasting change. It does not fade or disappear because it was short-lived but represent an enduring love, the fragility of life and an idea of renewal.

----

The babies we remember for September are the little ones who have been submitted to the Angel Baby Club for 2026 as of September 3, 2026. If you would like your little one to be included in the Angel Baby Club for 2026, you can sign up through our website.

Thank you, Erin Sowerby Greene, for the beautiful Morning Glory drawing and helping bring this year's flowers to life.

Angel Barrel Update 🌱

Everything seems to be growing a little slower this year and taking its time to fill out. Earlier in the year, many of you who planted seeds with us had an overflowing amount of green before most of my seeds had even popped up. It has been a good reminder that every garden has its own life and its own cycle.

All of my flowers in my yard this year have been late bloomers. Usually, they would be about a month ahead of where they are now, and I would already be seeing the full garden coming together and had lots of fresh bouquets, but I havent been able to make one. The flowers are growing, just at their own pace.

Plants, life, and grief all move through cycles. Sometimes things grow quickly, and sometimes they need more time. Sometimes we need more care, more patience, and more love before we are ready to bloom. That does not mean we are broken or doing something wrong. It simply means we may not be ready yet.

It may not be the most perfect year for blooms here, ironically, in a year where we are highlighting flowers. But maybe that is exactly what makes this meaningful and where I like to believe our babies are sending a reminder to us. Not every season looks the same, and not every year brings the blooms we hoped for.

Sometimes the reminder is simply to keep watering, keep caring, and give things the time they need. The flowers will come when they are ready.

Maybe we can offer ourselves that same patience, care, and love.

"You don't have to be strong every moment. Showing up is enough.''

This month's restock was one that truly reminded me how quickly these carts can make an impact.
Kootenai Health experienced a record number of births over the past month, which unfortunately also meant a higher number of babies in the NICU. In just one month, the Care Cart was nearly emptied, which is not common at Kootenai and I made a second trip to ensure it was fully stocked for the families who continue to walk through those NICU doors.

Every blanket, journal, stuffed animal, and gift card found its way into the hands of a family who needed a little extra comfort.

A special thank you to everyone who helped make this month's restock possible, including the donations made in honor of sweet Josie's 4th birthday. 🤍

This month's impact between both Fallon's Care Carts:
🖐️ 52 Ink Pads
📖 30 Blank Journals
💙 8 NICU Journals
🧸 57 Loveys
🦁 63 Razzbaby Animals
🤍 67 Swaddles
🛏️ 48 Small Blankets
🎁 31 Gift Cards tucked into swaddles and loveys
💧 30 Electrolyte Packets

Looking Ahead to September September is NICU Awareness Month, and we're already planning ways to make it extra special. We are currently collecting raffle baskets, gift cards, and donated items for our fundraiser. If you'd like to contribute or become a sponsor, please send me a message—we'd love to have you be part of it.

You can support Fallon's Care Carts by making a monetary donation or shopping from our Amazon Wishlist: ➡️ fallonsflight.org/donate

Thank you for continuing to be part of our circle of compassion. Every item placed on these carts reminds a family that they are seen, supported, and never alone. Together, we're providing much needed items to families living the hardest days by their babies bedside.
