There are various ways.
-The two of you may light your unity candle, then the two of you may light additional candles representing each of the children as a symbol of your commitment to them. If you wish, each child may help you with the lighting of the candle that represents them.
-You may all light a family candle together (each with their own individual candle).
-After the lighting of the unity candle, you may ask each child to light an individual candle representing their individual spirits, then you all light a separate family candle in addition to your unity candle.
It isn't as complicated as it may sound! You just need to choose which feels most lovely and right to you.
If none of it does, there are other options for including the children.
Blessings!
