I heard something last night at our group counseling session that I really liked and really summed up how I've been feeling lately...and I wanted to share because I'm sure a lot of you out there would agree!
"I don't mean to rain on your parade, but, I'm not ready to march in it with you yet."
This pretty much sums up how I've been feeling lately with ALL the pregnancy announcements and birth announcements flying our way. Exactly how I feel. I am so happy for others, but, at the same time it's hard because I am not happy for us (being without Wyatt that is). This can be the same feeling without a loss too. I've felt this way for a while now actually, but, losing Wyatt definitely brings an extra sting to the equation.
9 days. That should be my "due date" countdown right now. 9 days. Wow. We've come a long way since that fateful day in November when my countdown stopped. But, still a long long way to go.

I love the quote. It is very powerful and such a great way to put it. Thank you for sharing. My heart still aches for you and you remain included in my morning and evening prayers. I don't think I have commented in a while, and I want to let you know that you are on my mind. Wishing I was there to give you a big hug. Words still seem inadequate. Keep being strong! You are the hero of so many, including me.
i'm still praying for you guys all the time :)
That comment is so perfect, I have felt that way for well over 2 years already.
I am thinking of you as you approach your due date.
