I came across it just randomly off of someone else's bloglist. I just wanted to stop by and say hi. I can't say that I understand your pain, but I did want to let you know how brave I think you are to share it with the world. I hope that one day the pain will be replaced with a little baby who will make you smile again even if they won't completely replace Stevie. I send you cyber hugs and hope that you get through the holidays ok.Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07318092851971695319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-33463002751500744402010-12-07T21:05:40.554-06:002010-12-07T21:05:40.554-06:00Kristin, changes are you've stumbled across th...Kristin, changes are you've stumbled across this blog before, but on the off-chance that you haven't, I wanted to share it with you.

Yours is particularly heartbreaking and familiar to me as I lost my baby girl at almost the same gestation. I've also been writing to my little girl since I lost her six weeks ago, but am not brave enough to share those writing with anyone else. I admire you for having the strength to do so.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06987495797032184201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-27910673670287096352010-12-04T20:28:44.316-06:002010-12-04T20:28:44.316-06:00Kristin, I'm so sorry.

I'm pretty sure Christmas came last year and I'm almost sure that I kind of acknowledged it, at least with just my husband, but other than that, I could really give two craps about it then. I'll be thinking of you and Stevie this year and holding you close.

Do as you want or don't want and let anyone who has any commentary on what you SHOULD be doing or not doing drive up a tree. <br /><br />xoxoxoxoxoLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828552745708177768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-89556065624002396422010-12-02T19:33:33.485-06:002010-12-02T19:33:33.485-06:00Kristin,

I want to sit at home with my children...all of them. I want to pull out my hair because they are ALL driving me nuts. I don't want to spend my day off with people that ignore my feelings. I don't want to spend the holidays with the one-upper and the thunder stealer. <br /><br />I am glad you posted...I know we don't know each other but I think of you often and pray for you daily.<br /><br />Love-<br />DanielleDanielle Hammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05288807793064942155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-72520096807976690792010-12-02T11:25:46.724-06:002010-12-02T11:25:46.724-06:00Your post brought a tear to my eyes, I was pregnan...Your post brought a tear to my eyes, I was pregnant last December, but I lost that baby, the last couple of days have already been bring back memories and tears. <br /><br />I'm another one that has been lurking in the background, but I wanted to say something, but I doubt their are appropriate words.

I'm so sorry for your pain - and that it's so heartbreaking to try to get through the holiday season - that what is "normal" for others is causing you so much heartbreak and pain. <br /><br />I wish you luck navigating the holiday season - rock out to your iPod where ever you may go- and enjoy that wine with your hubby- make a toast to Stevie and a better 2011. <br /><br />I would say happy holidays, but instead I'll just send up a prayer for you.E&M's mommynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-20432429441669099392010-12-01T23:33:10.465-06:002010-12-01T23:33:10.465-06:00This post made me laugh and cry at the same time. ...This post made me laugh and cry at the same time.

Really understand your feelings from your thanksgiving blog about families. It is really hard to be around those that do not even mention McKenna's name as if she never even existed. Stay close to those that let you feel like you can cry, scream or whatever you need to do for you. I know that Stevie is so very proud of all that you have done in her name.Pattynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-74108707823276578172010-12-01T21:59:08.621-06:002010-12-01T21:59:08.621-06:00So I started to write on your last post and then R...So I started to write on your last post and then Rocky pushed a button and goodbye. So I will start over now that you have a new post to comment on. <br />I usually can't understand or relate to how you feel. I think this time of year I get it the most. Being a traditionalist through and through I wouldn't feel like celebrating the usual. Everything was suppose to be different this season. Instead there is a large part missing and a whole part that is not what it is suppose to be. It is not suppose to be a christmas dinner w/ a 'lucky underwear' present opening. It is suppose to be breast feeding and a new diaper bag b/c Andy keeps complaining about how girly that Nordy one is. :)<br />I love Christmas time and I only want to do what you would like. This year I will bring you 3 Buck Chuck and tissues b/c that is something from your list I can do. It is not fair. <br />K, you should ask for and do whatever you want. P.S. Make yourself some sweet wide leg PJs to watch TV in, that might help for the good days and the bad.<br />-Jjersadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11636945675070159701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3719166953467554528.post-74799458182780060252010-12-01T20:19:02.522-06:002010-12-01T20:19:02.522-06:00most sarcastic sounding christmas song this year?
