Day 12: Scents

October 12, 2012 ♥

Day 12. Scents: Do you have a scent that you relate to your baby/ies/child/ren? Is it a candle scent, perfume, food or maybe a flower? Share it with us!

There are so many sounds, sights, and aromas that can evoke an emotion in me. A feeling of missing Lily. So many things remind me of her, all year round.

Since my precious daughter's name is Lily, the scent that reminds me most of her is anything Lily-scented (mostly Lily of the Valley). So, that includes flowers, candles, perfumes, popurri, among other things. My special Lily candle that I light on days like her birthday and Mother's Day and my Lily perfume are in my picture for today.

Also, the scent of pumpkin (specifically pumpkin-spiced lattes) reminds me of Lily and my pregnancy with her. 

There are lots of other smells that make me think of her, but these are the two that stick out in my mind.
