A Day To Remember

Today is October 15th ~ Pregnancy and infant loss awareness day.

I'm sad to say that the number of people I know who lost a pregnancy and infant has grown over the years. Each story is different, and heartbreaking in it's own way.

I still remember the joy I felt in late February 2008 and the sorrow I felt just weeks later after we lost that one. Even an early miscarriage is the loss of a child - all that potential and love. We take today to pause and remember.

I also take today to say an extra thank-you for the wonderful child I get to wake up with every morning, spend time with all day and tuck in at night. I am so thankful for him.
