It is looking very promising and I am super thankful.
Thank you all for your lovely messages about my Dad. I arrived home safely on Sunday night, JourneyMan and JBB met us at the airport - they were both a sight for sore eyes, I can tell you - so much hugging, I was immediately comforted. After tucking JBB in bed, I went straight to my Mum and Dad's place where my Mum, 2 sisters, brother and Aunt (Dad's sister) were all waiting for me. As I hugged and cried with each of them, I realised how much love I have and how loved I am. It was a beautifully sad night.
I won't go in to the whole story right now, suffice to say that the past 2 days have been spent making funeral arrangements. I am emotionally, physically and spiritually exhausted but amongst it all, I am also filled with hope that this might be our cherished second baby, a sibling for our darling JBB. One thing that stands out in my mind over the past couple of days is that, I will not give up until JBB has a sibling. Being surrounded by my sisters and brother, I have felt bathed in love, support and with a life shared. I cannot imagine JBB not having that support in his life. I am hoping that this cycle brings us a baby so that we can give the gift to both of them of companions to walk along life's road.
I now have to write my part of the eulogy for my Dad, I want to perfectly express how I felt about him in my life - especially how proud I am to be his daughter.

Oh Heavens Above! Could this really be true? I am just in love with your little pink lines :@
ReplyDeleteI know it is a cliche when they say, one door closes and another opens ............ I thought it when you told us the news on your dad's passing and wondered if that was the openning for another little spirit to enter as his slipped away.
Please know that I mean this in the best intentions and do not mean to offend you if you do not believe the same but I can't help thinking this is a blessing your dad has provided to you.
My fingers and toes are crossed that the pick line becomes stronger and stronger until you get the urge to throw up with morning sickness.
Oh I second all of Dream/Believe's sentiments...
ReplyDeleteHugs to you, and I look forward to hearing all good things with this pregnancy.
Oh wow - what a lot of emotions you must be experiencing right now! I know what you mean about siblings - my relationship with my sister is what drives me to think of baby number 2 being a reality - there's nothing like a strong sibling relationship to get you through the tough times.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are home in the busom of your family, experiencing all the love and support you need at this sad time. It is a blessing that you have the promise of two lines to keep you feeling some hope throughout all this. I really like your determination to give JBB a sibling and for him to have the great support from a sibling that you have from yours. Keeping it all crossed for you, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for your pink lines.... Maybe an angel gift to you from your Dad. Glad you are surrounded by love!
