my journey to conceiving, carrying, birthing, exploring adoption, and raising my subsequent children after losing my firstborn after a full term pregnancy, and my second pregnancy after 7 weeks. this is loss, heartbreak, faith, hope, my children, my cherries on top, my joy.
Our Blessings

feeling sad for my little cherry when I realized I'd be 2nd trimester now :,(
pregnancy dates suck. anniversary dates suck. there's not much that doesn't suck about our situations. i am thankful, however, for the sisterhood that unites us all so closely, even though we've never formally met. we all carry each other through the good and bad times...thanks for commenting...it helps, a lot.
I am so sorry. It just sucks. I was actually doing really well not thinking like that until this past week when it came crashing down. Hoping for happier memories in the future.
I had my dream job, my dream husband, a loving family, awesome church, strong faith.. my children would be the cherries on top.. the recipe for a perfect life. Just when I felt safe, it all came crashing down with the death of my first daughter in 2009, and a miscarriage 8 months later. 18 months to the day of Kathlyn's funeral, our Glory was born. We were reminded that Joy can still be found in life. I love more than I've ever loved, I miss more than I've ever missed.
