Raining

Today is Hannah's due date. It's a day I'd looked forward to with such anticipation. All of our children have been born before their due dates, so, had things turned out differently, Hannah probably wouldn't have been born today either, but a due date is a due date ... a day on the calendar to look forward to with anxiety and excitement.

But today it's raining outside, in my heart, and down my cheeks.

I miss you so much, Hannah.

Oh, Meliane. I didn't remember until you had left today. I'm sorry. Thinking about, and praying for you and your sweet baby girl.

My heart is with you Mel.
Wish I lived closer so that I could give you a real hug and a shoulder to cry on. May our Lord give you the strength to carry on until you can see both Hannah and Grace again in Heaven.

I wish I weren't reading this, and a birth announcement instead.

I just found your blog and want to tell you how sorry I am for your losses of Grace and Hannah. Those are beautiful names. I am just beginning my walk in grief as we lost our son Bryston on the 24th of last month. I hope you dont mind if I follow your blog, its helpful to me to read other womens stories.
