It has become a tradition in Amecet, to remember and name the children who passed away in the year. We have years with 10 or 12 children, difficult to recall their suffering. but knowing that they are now safe in Jesus' arms. This year we "only" lost 4 children.
Our gathering in our living room. In the middle the table with the pictures of the children and a candle for each one of them. In the middle a vase with flowers, representing the life of all the children who came through Amecet this year and recovered and are now blooming!!

We got a small poem, what we want to dedicate to those little one's
God saw you
God saw you getting tired, when a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped His arms around you and whispered, "come to Me"
You didn't deserve what you went through, so He gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best.
And when I saw you sleeping, so peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back to suffer that again.
