Well i just wanted to say i went to the memorial and it was really really very nice. I cried alot and thought about my babies alot but at the same time had to deal with real life...my son sitting beside me complaining that he had to pee and could we eat yet...my dh fidgeting in his seat cuz i made him wear a good shirt...
...but they had a really nice little service and a candle lighting ceremony...lots of little readings including my own story...and i guess the hardest part was listening to Eric Claptons' "tears in heaven'...i couldnt stop crying with that song...the words are so sad. My dh said he wrote that song when his little boy drowned in their swimming pool...
i met a mom afterwards who lost her twin girls and we just hugged and hugged and cried...we never met before in our life...it was weird that we just felt 'connected'...she has another baby now and she was very encouraging...it was very emotional and we got to know eachother very well over the chocolate cake table...emotional eating is what i do best!
...i thought of you all and your babies....and i prayed for all of us. There was lots of tears and nose blowing...but i'm glad i went.
