If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together, there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think;
but the most important thing is, even if we're apart,
I will always be with you.

I won a book!! YAY!



I was soooo sooo sooo hoping I would win a copy of the book "They Were Still Born" that Angie on Still Life with Circles has been telling us about for a few months. I saw it on her blog a while back and was so excited to have a book specifically dealing with stillbirth and how other people have been affected by it. I was planning on buying it as soon as it came out but have waited to order because my dh still isn't working and money is tight right now and then I checked her blog today and there was my name called as the winner of the draw... soo soo happy... I know I'll probably bawl reading all the stories but I can't wait.

Never in a million years did I think I would ever be "excited" to be reading about stillbirth and our little lost babies but it does bring me a sense of peace (just like reading the blogs of other BLMs out there) to know that I'm not alone and it isn't just me that lost my baby. I'd never in a million years want anyone else to deal with this loss but it's comforting to know I'm not alone in my grief.

If you want to check it out, please do... I'm sure it's going to be an excellent book:

Chapters.Indigo.ca

Barnes and Noble
Rowman and Littlefield

Love you little man... Keep watching over your baby brother so Mommy can worry a little less knowing you're there watching over him...Sending you lots of hugs and kisses baby...

Love,

I just finished this book and it really is good. I too actually "enjoy" reading stories about stillbirth, their always the first books I can actually get through now! Glad you won, congrats!

Does this mean I get to read it too? (I'll trade you back your copy of An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination)
