Baby

April 7, 2011:  This was to be our due date for baby #2.  Back in the fall when we were given the date, all I could think about was how sad I was that I would miss part of my school year.  Oh, what I wouldn't give to be on maternity leave and able to hold our baby now.  Sadly, it was not meant to be.... Instead, we will forever carry the hopes and dreams for our baby in our hearts.

Today, I am asking everyone to send their thoughts and prayers to any mother who has experienced the gift of life taken from them.  Sadly, this event is much more common than one would think and I personally know way too many who have suffered/ are suffering through this devastation.  Take a moment to hug those around you, be thankful for what you have, and make it a happy day.
