I don't know if it has something to do with the warm weather (it was in the 70's yesterday and today) or if I am just feeling more at peace, but I am feeling more like myself. Yesterday was a great day spent with family and this morning Ayden and I got to go for a walk in that park. I was smiling and loved pointing things out to him. He is so full of wonderment. I know things will be all right and while we had a major setback, we will get through this and be stronger for it. I am grateful for so many things and while I still have moments of sadness and break down crying, these instances are becoming less frequent and I have a renewed sense of hope. Here are a couple pictures of the plant David brought home for me/us last Tuesday. Watching the plant grow and bloom has also helped me through this process and while I still need to wait for April 21st for complete closure, it will be here and we will have our plan of what to do next.
I came downstairs Thursday morning (April 7th) and all 3 plants had opened and bloomed. This would have been our first ultrasound appointment.
Today the flowers are getting taller and more are opened. Excuse the chaos of life going on behind the flowers.
Thank you for sharing your story. My heart breaks for you and your family, but this post shows a lot of strength and healing already in the process. If you need anything, let me know. I know I'm about a zillion miles away, but I can be here electronically!
ReplyDeleteOh MB, I am so, so sorry to hear about what you are going through right now. However, this post is a testament to your strength and how awesome of a mother you are being able to still be so in the moment with Ayden. He is so lucky to have you!! Please contact me if you need anything, I'll be thinking of you!
