It seems I’m losing this baby.  I’ve been thinking back through the past five days, and I wouldn’t have traded them for the world.  My friends rejoiced with me as I learned of this pregnancy–it was a long time coming.  My children were so excited.  Honey kissed the baby (my belly, of course) often and said, "I’ve been waiting."  Sister told me she couldn’t wait for my belly to get bigger so she could kiss it during mass when we gave each other the sign of peace.  Brother couldn’t wait to buy the baby a board book.  Pumpkin just kept saying, "I’m your baby."

A dear friend once said, "We rejoice together, we grieve together."  I’m glad I shared my news with my friends.  Now, I know my friends will help me grieve.
