I don't know if our mothers and grandmothers did so openly...part of me thinks that they definitely did, over a cup a coffee. These days, seems we don't have time for that, but we do have the internet. Progress or no? I'm not sure, but I'll take what I can get :-) All the best to you and yours. <br /><br />PS. I'm encouraged by your 45 days...thanks :-)jillgrabernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220053887943193277.post-55678575050759920732009-10-22T15:05:21.393-05:002009-10-22T15:05:21.393-05:00You said it beautifully.You said it beautifully.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02033253717075839091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220053887943193277.post-6638506011698954292009-10-21T22:00:26.770-05:002009-10-21T22:00:26.770-05:00That's a key point about the due date that was...That's a key point about the due date that wasn't. I definitely thought about it that way just a couple months shy of Maggie's due date. It is a weird thing, but a date I think I'll always remember...Abbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15048697179571170174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220053887943193277.post-43365502604295831612009-10-21T21:58:22.923-05:002009-10-21T21:58:22.923-05:00Thank you for your beautiful post.

As the due date that "would have been" came and went, I could not help but think about that little one and was sad but I think it WAS easier because I am pregnant now. I feel the same way you do, I know I am carrying a precious gift now and Mr.Roman is meant to be here but feel conflicted because I can't help but still mourn the loss of that other child. I know I will always mourn him/her a little bit. The one year anniversary of my loss will be Dec 9th-one month exactly before my due date now. I know that day will be a bitter-sweet as well. But, I feel so blessed to be carrying this precious little one, who is, so far, healthy and strong!:) I didn't know the touching story of the plant. It is beautiful and proves we have angels watching over us! Thank you for sharing! Love you!jcarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16400515039388152335noreply@blogger.com
