this is so, so beautiful. thank you for sharing your heart and for putting something so hard into such beautiful words. i haven't been where you are (and i praise God for that) but your words help me to understand and to know how to pray for and encourage friends who have been there.

So beautiful, your words, and the picture.
We miscarried very very early in a suprise pregnancy (I was on birth control). I don't talk about it much in 'real' life, but do on my blog. In the spring we plan to start trying - and I always stumble because I'm not trying for my first. But to explain that to random people? No, I'll probably will call him or her my first aloud, even though in my heart I know that he or she is actually my second.

Thank you for this... My angel baby would have been 6 tomorrow. We will celebrate with cake, but I will hide my tears from the children who are here. I was just trying to get my head around FEELING like there is 3. And my heart knows there is.

oh how this post brought tears to my eyes. I cannot think of a better way to celebrate all 4 silently, in your own way. Beautiful. Love to you.

Tears. I know. I think of it often as people are astonished that I have 4 and I think...but there could be 5 or 6 or 7 here.

My 3 yo has the most memory of Abigail...and it may be is because in some way that she cannot articulate and we don't quite get she is actually grieving her missing twin who she spent the first 20 weeks in the womb with. But she doesn't know about that yet. Yet she daily speaks of Abigail as if she held her in her own arms and cries often about how she aches to be with her baby sister in heaven...that she just wants her back.

I think often about my babies being with my Grandfather...bouncing on his knee just like he did with me...or that our babies somehow have found each other up there...not that i pretend to fully understand heaven but it is a peaceful image.

Love and Hugs to you, Melissa!

I want to be there and hug you. It's so devastating to read and so perfect that it's on the 4th so while I'm crying for you, for your loss and your pain...I'm smiling, too, because it's right.

And the teddy bear. And Grandma.
Yes.

Love you (((hugs)))
