This is a very difficult decision, and a very personal one.. it is best to do what you feel comfortable with doing...

The first year is the hardest... I remember I couldnt even celebrate Nathalieīs birthday on the 14th (their actual birthday) because I was so sad I wasnt having 3 cakes! So I had it on the 15th and it was a very happy day. My first angelversary for Daniel was on the 19th, and one of my best friendsīs baby was born that day, and I couldnt even call to say congratulations. However, on the 20th I was ok and went to visit her.

I think that the thought of doing something else on their special day, is harder than actually doing it. However, you have to do what you feel best... If you think it is not fair on Hunter (I know its not that way, but I felt It was not fair for my babies to do something else on their birthday or angelversary), donīt go, donīt do it...

I will be thinking of you during this special week...
