The Dreaded Day Is Here.

Mother's Day.

It's the day I put on my bravest face for my mom, mother-in-law, step mom, sister & sister-in-law, but inside my heart is breaking.

Because it should be MY Mother's Day too.

And, it's not.

Not yet.

But, it's not just hard for me.

Mother's Day is a hard day for any woman who's lost a baby or child.

Especially for one of my besties (you know who you are!).

This should have been her FIRST Mother's Day. But, it's even more difficult for her because she found out she was pregnant the day after Mother's Day last year.

But, just like me, she has an awesome support system in her husband & both their families. We've also found a support system in each other & that's been so comforting.

Because it'll be my first Mother's Day where I don't feel so alone. I know there's someone else who understands EXACTLY the sadness this day holds.

I don't have to hide my feelings from her. And, that feels good.

A: I thank God everyday that He put you in my life. Our friendship means soooo much to me. I know that our losses brought us together, but I love that we have so much more than that in common. And, I believe that one day soon we'll both be blessed with babies & it'll be so much fun to be mom's together (to HH & HT...ha, ha). Love you!!!!!
