Thank you all so much. Your prayers and thoughtfulness are so appreciated.
My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. One time in high school, Derek said "Gee, I wonder if I would have had an older brother or an older sister." I told him that he wouldn't be here if that baby had survived because I still would have been pregnant at the time we conceived him. I gently reminded him of that last night.
They are doing okay, all things considered, and are able to understand that it most likely means the baby would have had insurmountable problems had it been born. But as we all know often times your heart doesn't move along as quickly as your head. They do have the blessing of my little Punkin' to remind them that life moves on for a 2 year old and today is like any other day for her, full of joy and adventure.
