Thank You

Thank you everyone, for all your kind words and support. I need it so much right now, and you all are saying just the right things.

"An open heart is more of what this world needs."

A dear friend said that to me after hearing of our sad news. It made me cry, because I knew I'd rather risk my heart and have the incredible experience of this past week, then to protect myself and stay safe and miss out.

If there was any doubt about whether we really wanted to be parents, that doubt is now gone.

My arms are missing my Baby Bird. The bed is lonely without her.

I've been thinking of you, a lot! It is true, we do need more people with open hearts. I am so glad you've decided to stay on this journey, some child is going to be so blessed, as Baby B already was.

Evergreen, this post is so beautiful. I want to honour your courage, too - you are so brave to choose to risk your heart rather than shut down to protect it. The pain you are going through is the pain that transforms the world by transforming your heart - I believe that right down to my toenails. And if I had any doubts about how wonderful you will be as a mother (which I didn't, but still), they are gone, too.

Continuing to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Contstantly in my heart, thoughts and prayers. It's a miracle you can see the "bright" side...

That all your doubt is gone is a beautiful thing even through the heartache....

some child, somewhere is going to be the luckiest child ever to be YOUR forever child.........

You have been on my mind a lot as well. I know you must be hurting so much right now, and I am so sorry you have to go through this.

Hugs.

I've been thinking of you so often. The opening of our hearts is the hardest thing to do -- but the most powerful. I second all the remarks made here.

With love,
