A beautiful friend.

So today I have a visit from a beautiful friend. She brought me some "Colette" flowers (Daisy's and Gerber Daisy's are Colette's flowers) because she knew that next week the 24th will be 5 months since we lost Colette, and she was going to be at Girl's Camp that week so she brought them a week early Thank you so much Jennifer! For all the little and big things you do to help us know that we are not the only ones who remember her!
I have been very amazed at how many people not only remember Colette but also remember what I refer to as her date. And do things for us here and there to help ease our pain and grief. Truly this has taught me a great deal about morning with those who mourn and comforting those who stand in need of comfort.

    The flowers are beautiful. It always feels good to have others acknowledge our little ones that have passed on.

A not so fun support group meeting

Tonight was our monthly support group meeting.   I was actually looking forward to it, and hoping that it would be a good meeting.  I have found some really wonderful friends there.  There were a lot of new people there tonight and I've never seen it so full.   Which of course is not a good thing.  It always makes me sad to think that someone else has to loose a baby too. However it was NOT a good meeting tonight.  I'm totally baffled how someone can sit in a room full of people who have ALL lost a child in one way or another and say that no one knows what they are going through and that what they went through is far worse than what everyone else has gone through... Yea for me personally a miscarriage would be far easier than what we did go through for Colette, but I would never say to anyone that had a miscarriage that what I went through was far worse than what they went through.  I would never dream of it!  Yet I had to sit through ...

Another Ultrasound update

Today I went to the Hospital and had another Ultra sound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  Other than both of the babies being in kind of a funky position  everything looks great.  And the babies are not measuring small by any means!  Baby A is about 2lbs 8 oz and Baby B is about 2lbs 11oz.  But it was good to see their little hearts beating away and watch them snuggle together.  I have a little break from dr's appointments for a couple of weeks but it will be fun to see how much they have grown the next time we get to have a peek at them.
