July 31st

I can't believe it, but it has been a year already. Not since Clarence died and was born, but since he first came into our lives. We didn't yet know it but this day in 2008 (or shortly before or after) a very special thing happened. A sperm and an egg came together and the miracle of life began. Kinda embarrassing to write about his conception...but that is the REAL beginning of his life, right? A little secret taking root in Mommy's womb.... What a beautiful day!
And what a difference that life would make.

(((HUGS))) Our anniversary of our loss date is this week, and I am being hit very hard by all the emotions from it. Forever changed, aren't we?

Not embarrassing at all! I think it is a beautiful memory!

Aug 10 is when Alex first came into our lives and Oct 27 is when Nick & Sophie came. We always think of those dates as special too.

Big hugs and thinking of Clarence today and his special journey into your lives.

We conceived William this time last year, too... I was hoping this month we would conceive his little brother or sister... *sigh*
