For the first time since we found out Matt’s Dad was in the ER back in January, I went a whole week without blogging. I think that’s kind of how it is, though— I post the initial post about what’s going on (see exhibit A about Matt’s Dad and exhibit B about my miscarriage), …
Before I go into any other thoughts I had today, I wanted to thank everyone who has sent love and support and prayers our way since I posted about our miscarriage. While it’s still not the path we wanted, we feel very fortunate to be surrounded by so many people both in “real life” …
