Keep the journal going. SM

I too have had a miscarriage and loved the baby so much (11 weeks). It was devastating and not all people understand exacty how attached we are to the child growing inside us. I waited the appropriate time before starting again and got pregnant after a couple months. I have a beautiful 11-year-old girl now. If I wouldn't have had the miscarriage I wouldn't have my daughter whom I love so much. I can't imagine the thought.

I'm sorry and keep up the journal. It is so healthy to write your thoughts and feelings down as it helps you work through everything you are going through. Your baby is in heaven along with mine and many others. God has a special place close to him for the little ones.

I am keeping the journal going and in addition...sm
I bought a ceramic cross yesterday with 1 Samuel 1:27 on it which says "For This Child I prayed". I wrote the baby's nickname that my husband & I called it, the EDC and "went to heaven" dates on the front of the cross and it's hanging in our living room next to our family photo.

Do you have a journal or baby book?
I've had 3 and I used to write in them whenever I felt sad. I would just write thngs to the baby when I was pregnant. I kept doing it after the baby died. I would be crying horriblly while writing but then I would close the book, take a shower (cry more in the shower!), and then I would be ok.

The Altanta Journal newspaper today...sm
says that apparently there are 2 reasons he's staying on:

1. People feel sorry for him and want to irritate Simon by voting for him.

2. A lot of the girls ages 8-14 idolize him and think he's a sweet guy - they don't care that he can't sing - they just are attracted to him.

I think he does things on purpose like the Mohawk to keep the controversy about him going and people voting for him. Would he sell records if he were to be the final winner? I doubt he'd sell many.
