June 5 2009

Don’t worry, I’m not crazy I know today is the 4th…but since I normally don’t post on Saturday’s I figure today will be fine…This post is about my experience last year on June 5 2009

I always am amazed at where a year will take you. How many journeys you get to go on and how [...]

Remembering Happiness Trumps Sadness

I am sad…I will admit it. I have been working so hard at staying positive and being happy, but sometimes the sadness creeps in and there is nothing I can do. This week has been hard. It’s really hard knowing that had everything gone right I would be getting ready to meet my [...]

Sometimes Life Is Like A Dream

In our lives we live through good dreams and bad dreams. We hope that most of our days will be filled with good days but sometimes we don’t have a say. One dream like event for me was my wedding. It was all I could’ve ever dreamed of. It all fit to my [...]

Continuing the Journey

This past summer I chose to share about my miscarriage and Our Loss. It was a horrible time in my life, and although I am moving on, there are some things that just remind me of the loss. For example this month I would’ve been in my 5th month of pregnancy. The fifth month is such an [...]

Our Loss: What I Have Learned

Back To Life…Back To Reality

As many of you can imagine I have had alot on my mind. I haven’t felt like myself, and I feel like my life has taken a backseat to all the emotions I have been feeling. My week vacation at the Jersey shore was exactly what I needed. I had my family (minus my husband [...]

Our Loss…It’s Over…

As you’ve read in my previous post about the loss of our pregnancy, things have been pretty sad in our household this past week. I figured since I started you on this journey with us in that post, I should continue and let you know how we are doing from time to time, and what [...]

Our Loss
