    Rachel, I am glad you had an easy labor. My heart is breaking for you. Yoy will alway keep those pictures close to your heart and cherish them forever. I regret that I did not take more of Lillyan and I feel like I did not spend enough time with her. It is wonderful that you are spending so much time with your precious Alexander. I hope your time is as enjoyable as possible and you are able to build some memories with him. If you are up to posting pictures, I would love to see your precious little angel Alexander.

    ((BIG HUGS))  He sounds beautiful.  I hope you can find peace soon and get some rest.  I wish there were words I could say to make you feel better during this time, but just know you have this entire board of women to lean on for support any time you need it.  But of course, we understand if you need to take a step back too. I hope you come back from time to time to let us know you and your husband are doing well.  ((HUGS))

    Rachel-I have been thinking about you non stop and praying for you and DH. I am glad labor wasn't painful. Alexander sounds like a beautiful boy. It is good you get to spend so much time with him and took pictures. I would have sat with Gavin forever and I know you feel the same way. I am praying hard for you hunny that God gives you strength. I mean it that I will always be here to talk (off the bump of course). I wish I could just reach out and hug you and DH.
