I hope that our boys see us and see the love that we have for them. As I have been designing Drew's garden, I have wondered how he might like to visit us there. While we might have our bad days, we will forever be thankful to have been blessed with their precious lives. And I truly believe that they know and feel that. Sending you lots of love and big big hugs!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601800346553703806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-7939364879848199502011-03-21T12:58:54.449-05:002011-03-21T12:58:54.449-05:00"I am a mother, but I don't know how to p..."I am a mother, but I don't know how to put a car seat in the car"<br /><br />a couple other bloggers recently made similar statements on their blogs, and i commented that it had recently occurred to me that had kenny been born alive in august instead of dead in may, he'd be 7 months old, and i have NO idea what he'd be capable of. i know nothing about 7-month-old babies.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13450929181331922606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-82381469172995050762011-03-21T08:44:16.027-05:002011-03-21T08:44:16.027-05:00I love the thought of being able to see our babies...I love the thought of being able to see our babies one day a year and vice versa. I ofter wonder if Harper can see us talking to her and kissing her picture and urn. I hope so or at least, I hope that they know how very much that they are missed and loved. <br /><br />The last sentence really got to me. That you are a mother but you don't know how to use a car seat but you do know how to bury your baby. So heartbreaking and so true. I think of that a lot, about how I have no idea how to be a mother to a living child only to my angel. :( Lots of love to you, my friend.Rhiannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11722893069322386523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-25983167446680074262011-03-20T21:45:36.430-05:002011-03-20T21:45:36.430-05:00I wonder quite often if Liam can see me and what I...I wonder quite often if Liam can see me and what I am doing. Is he actually listening to me when I speak to him every night? Is he happy or saddened by what he see's and hears? So many questions... I'd like to believe both Jacob and Liam are looking down at us, even if its only one day a year, and happy knowing that there families speak of them so much. Glad you have a great husband to talk to about all these things. Take careBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11917822168137274298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-25876409546512338002011-03-20T21:29:59.082-05:002011-03-20T21:29:59.082-05:00Wow that is a beautiful conversation and so many p...Wow that is a beautiful conversation and so many possibilities to discuss. You are adding memories just by talking about Jacob and all the hopes and dreams you have for him now. It is truly special to share that with Ted and I thank you for sharing it with us also. All my love to you mama and hoping that you will have the experience and bring home a happy healthy sibling for Jacob.Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17215595176820577303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-16049632541440369412011-03-20T09:55:35.063-05:002011-03-20T09:55:35.063-05:00One of my fav things to do is sit or lie down and ...One of my fav things to do is sit or lie down and just spend time imagining what Blaine is doing. How much fun he is having, who is he playing with. They are nice thoughts to have and one of the reasons I am so glad I have faith in God and Heaven. I like to think Blaine would see us sad but would see us strong too. Moving forward and building our family but still remembering and loving him every minute.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08091097457612359686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-90915450932140894652011-03-20T00:12:52.328-05:002011-03-20T00:12:52.328-05:00It sounds like you and Ted had a really good talk ...It sounds like you and Ted had a really good talk about Jacob and times like that are very special.carhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11393089450621191821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120089838687161782.post-86379345466316492802011-03-19T20:14:55.023-05:002011-03-19T20:14:55.023-05:00This is such a beautiful thought.... two days a ye...This is such a beautiful thought.... two days a year.. if only.

What would they see? Would they see us sad and think that was their faults? Or would they be able to see the true joy they brought us, even by their short lives...<br /><br />Hugs...Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17681333723382119281noreply@blogger.com
