My aunt just made me cry

kelle017 · March 2013

In a good way. I got a really nice message from her. This was her message. She said how happy she was for us at the start"

"Every baby is truly a gift from God. I will pray that your pregnancy goes well and in the fall we will have a new little baby to welcome. I feel another shower coming!

I know that i was always asking about you becoming pregnant and surely didn't realize that you had gone through 2 miscarriages--so sorry if I hurt you in any way. I know how it feels to lose a baby and although we trust God to do what is good and perfect in our lives-it is so hard emotionally, mentally and physically to go through losing a child---there is certainly going to be a huge welcoming committee of kids when we get to heaven!!!! So love you both and am so exited for you."

I never felt offended when she asked, or anyone asked. I knew the person was just excited. I know that bugs some people (when they are asked), and had we had more losses or gotten farther down the road it might have, and then I would have talked about it.

Anyway the message just made my morning.

And on a side note my aunt was talking last year, maybe Thanksgiving time, about how she was charting and temping to try and get pregnant with my cousins (the oldest who just turned 38). I thought it was cool and wanted to say something, but didn't want to out myself.
