(he kept saying he was having a sister, not a cousin, lol)*sigh*<br />many hugs to you and your baby girls...Leila's mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13220692586558542268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-21651496759832217112009-11-22T12:24:51.098-08:002009-11-22T12:24:51.098-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.My lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11577697959116005711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-32347575824077695742009-11-16T20:41:27.701-08:002009-11-16T20:41:27.701-08:00Tina,

Through much encouragement from my Earth Angel friend Nan I took her advice in search of healing my heart. What a blessing she is to me.<br /><br />So very sorry that you all were sick, but elated to know that you are feeling better :) Thank you for taking your time to stop in and show encouragement, as it means so much. <br /><br />Hugs to youAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06709001842788289402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-29099271942765355172009-11-13T21:22:14.892-08:002009-11-13T21:22:14.892-08:00Glad to have you back.

And your children sound so sweet. I'm glad you had that service to go to with your family and that your talk with your colleague about her baby and your babyloss went well. That was amazing for you to approach her I think and be so open. Thinking of you. And of your girls.

It sounds like it was helpful (in a way).... When you were talking about Emma trying to console you it reminded me of our little guy the other night. He had another grief outburst.. missing his brother and not understanding and our oldest son asked him to stop crying because he would make mommy cry... bless their hearts.<br /><br />Emma is just absolutely gorgeous... I love the costume, it's perfect.<br /><br />LeaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05569964047627902570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-63942687990299440422009-11-13T04:03:48.207-08:002009-11-13T04:03:48.207-08:00So glad to see you again!

I have no doubt there was a lot to catch up on after you felt better. Emma looks so cute as an angel for Halloween. I think it is so fitting!!<br /><br />I'm glad you found out about the memorial service and that you went. Sometimes you just need a good cry. Good way to release those emotions.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15431384515813384025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-86191569766681853002009-11-12T17:17:11.290-08:002009-11-12T17:17:11.290-08:00I'm so glad to see a post from you!
So MUCH of...I'm so glad to see a post from you!<br />So MUCH of this I feel the same way about. Being a teacher-there were 3 ladies at my school due at pretty much the same time as me. They all came back this week. They won't even look at me. I feel so angry. Shouldn't I be the one that can't look at them!?!?! Oh, well.<br />There is nothing worse for me than a damn double stroller. It just makes me ache on the inside. It's horrible. I just wish I could even picture myself pushing that double stroller, but all of that is starting to fade, which makes me miserable...<br />i hope you are all staying healthy. Thank you for the update!

She made a great angel and I'm sure she was glad she picked it! <br />I'm glad you went to the service...your family is so precious and you know you can make it through anything with them. You shouldn't have stressed about it. I wish I had a service I could go to. I *need* a release like that right now. So I completely understand.<br />I wish I could give your teacher friend my samples of formula, too. I hate that they are going to waste. Mostly for obvious reasons, though. <br />I feel the same....so weird....off-kilter....I SHOULD be pushign a stroller right now, too.<br />It was good to hear from you. I hope you all stay healthy.<br />xoxo<br />ChristyChristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04211125719068555386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683250206921099751.post-24487724553950000472009-11-12T12:22:02.566-08:002009-11-12T12:22:02.566-08:00Tina glad you are back!

It would be nice since we didn't have a service for Ella. It must be horrible to have to work side by side with someone who shared your due date and who's baby lived. I have 2 friends who are due within days of this baby and I'm kind of mad about it because if I lose this one, I have to watch them have their babies when I should have been too. It's so hard. So unfair.

Secondly, your Emma is just adorable!!! I'm so glad she was an angel, it seems perfect. It is so sweet that she was trying to comfort you when you were crying at the memorial service. That was incredibly brave of you to talk to that other teacher with whom you shared a due date. I don't know if I could have done that. I have told a few women that were preggo with me that its ok to talk about Jenna, but that was only after they approached me. You are so strong. It seems like you have found some healing, just by reading your words.

There is much in your post I want to respond to - I don't even know where to start. <br /><br />I'm glad that you and Emma are feeling better - we've been passing a cold or something around our house too... <br /><br />I think the angel costume is wonderful. It's wonderful that Emma feels a connection to the twins.<br /><br />You showed amazing strenght and courage to talk to the other eacher who shared your due date! WOW - I don't know if I could have done that.<br /><br />I've had my blog go publuc too - it was strange for me too.
