Today is International Bereaved Mothers Day. It is so bittersweet. It is nice that we have a special day, but it is a reminder of not only our loss, but that we will probably be forgotten as mothers next week. This morning the wife of a friend of mine had their second son (their third child). Their first son is named Ethan, born six months to the day that my Ethan was born. Guess what they named their second son? Born today, one day short of six months to the day my Andrew died? Good guess...Andrew. They don't know what I named my angel. It is just a coincidence. Today is also the unveiling of my grandmothers gravestone. I have a feeling the tears are going to flow today. I hope you all have an easy day remembering your angels.

No longer trying to conceive.
Love you, E. (((hugs)))
If it makes you feel just a teensy bit better, I got your card today and it means so much to me. Thank you so much for thinking of me. I just want you to know how much it means to me to have you there and to know that you know exactly to the millimeter how I feel. I wish you lived closer so we could get together and I could just give you big hugs. I feel like when we do eventually see each other I'm going to cry like a baby.
You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
