    Where are you in your PAL journey? Anna was 7 months old yesterday, she will be 4 months adjusted next week.

    What are some PAL challenges you have faced recently? Anna was sleeping pretty well there for a while, but has added back a MOTN feeding and it is difficult to get her down after that. I love her so much, but it is hard to like her when she is being "difficult!" I feel guilty if she cries at all, because she has been through so much already, but it's tough for me too! 

    QOTW: What is the biggest challenge you have faced since parenting after a loss? How did you get through it? Anna has special needs due to her prematurity and brain bleeds. Sometimes when things get tough, I feel the weight of everything our family has been through and the grief is overwhelming. I feel like I should be thankful, but I am still angry about what happened to Anna, so I don't feel that thankful, then I feel guilty! Lately I have started to blog about it, but I also just try to get in some snuggle time. 

    Open Topic. What is on your mind this week? Looking forward to this afternoon when DH is bringing Anna is visiting my office for the first time and bringing CAKE!

    Hugs to you momma! You have been through so much. I know it can be hard to be thankful for what we have, especially when we grieving our losses. I think blogging is a great idea, I often think I'd like to start one.
    Enjoy all the love and attention at the office today!
