All 4 of you are just beautiful. How wonderful you’ve each found someone who knows and understands.

Bon I think it is so wonderful that you have each other to understand. These photos are lovely.

I wonder if the hospitals could do a better job of connecting parents. The events in themselves are difficult enough without feeling all alone. My hospital had a parent buddy program but my friend’s baby died at the hospital across the road so she had no idea such a thing existed.

One of my favorite lines: “…for the sense of sisterhood that crept over me like an old forgotten remnant”.
Indeed, how powerful the bonds of deep, raw sisterhood; especially those knitted from the fabric of loss, grief, healing, hope.
You two deserve each other’s beautiful hearts.
Thank you for sharing photos. Your radiance shines through.
xoxo

I am sitting here with tears in my eyes, for if ever two people should meet, two souls should connect, two women should bond, it’s you two.

This post is beautiful, and so is your friendship.

I’ve been lurking on both this and sweet-salty kate’s website for a month or so, and just had to delurk to say… You are both so *beautiful!* And the children, too =) And the words, always.

Glad the two of you found each other.

tears over here ~ beautiful tears. i have meet some of my bloggy sisters and it is intensely beautiful and amazing and you have captured that beauty here but wow to meet someone who also held their baby close as he whispered his last breathe ~ i also have never met someone who gets that in the way that only someone who has experienced it gets it. seeing you two on together makes my heart smile as i think of the two of you on the other side of the country, hearts nodding in recognition.

beautiful. xox

I’m so happy you two could meet! I know you’ve been such a support to each other–how wonderful that you got a chance to spend some time together.

Oh… beautiful.

It has never even occurred to me to think of my thoughts of Molly and Joseph as their way of reaching out to me. I will be hanging onto that.

Your comment about the “idea” of Finn jumped out at me because of this quote that has become symbolic for me of my heavenly babes:

“You were made perfectly to be loved- and surely I have loved you, in the idea of you, my whole life long.”

Your words hypnotized me so much that I had to go back and re-read this post.

As with the many above me, the beauty of it, of all of it, moves me to tears.
