Happy Birthday Princess

We celebrated K's 3rd birthday this weekend. She was so excited to make her cake, dark chocolate (that's my girl). I think she actually wanted to eat the batter more than make the cake, but that's the fun of helping mom.
This is how the cake finally turned out. We had a hard time keeping the dolls chest covered so she ended up a bit lumpy on top, but K loved it. The hard part was keeping it away from her. She really wanted to touch it and play with it.
She is such a little cutie. She sang "Happy Birthday" all day long.
Here she is in her sleeping beauty dress I made for her. It didn't turn out exactly as I hoped, but she still loves it.
K got lots of girly presents. Cute clothes, dresses, hair clips, and dolls, but her favorite was this Disney Princess set. We actually bought it for her around Christmas. It hasn't been easy to hide it from her, but she was soooo excited when she got it.
K and Bellle both thought it was a fantastic present.
Overall it was a fun get together. Food, family, friends all good things. Still I can't that believe that she is getting so big. She is such a fantastic little girl. She loves to snuggle, gives great hugs and is always doing the cutest things. I love that she is such a girly girl. It is so fun to have a little princess to play with. K is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. I love her so much and we are so blest to have her in our family.

Here is my annual birthday movie for K

I was so glad you invited us. I think Belle did rather well for her first friend party, and not having a nap. K is a gem. She handled Belle like a pro! ;)

Keep singing until the end of the song

Since my last post we lost 2 more precious babies.  On September 30, 2016 we lost our beautiful baby girl Felicity at 5 months.  Almost a year later, we found out we were expecting agin.  Sadly on Dec.1, 2017 we lost our little boy, Elijah.  I need to write their stories, but the feelings and emotions are still very raw and difficult.  While I hope to share them someday, today is not that day. Today is December 21, just a few more days until Christmas.  I LOVE Christmas.  The lights, smells, delicious food, family and friends, and especially the music.  I love to sing Christmas songs and look forward to it every year.  But this year it was hard to sing the songs I love so much.  This year singing about the miraculous birth brought sadness and even anger.  I have struggled to feel the Christmas Spirit. I imagine it is difficult to experience any loss during the Christmas season.  A holiday that focuses so much on family, fri...

Comparison: The Thief of Compassion

I have often heard the saying, "Comparison is the thief of joy", but as I have been navigating this road of loss and grief, I have noticed how often comparison denies us the opportunity to have true compassion for someone else.  Comparison is often well meaning and kind hearted, but when we or someone else compares grief, loss, or other trials and tribulations, it shifts the focus and burden of compassion off of us and minimizes the other person. A few moths ago I had a startling interaction that caused me to pause and reflect on this.  A great, well meaning friend said something along these lines, "You thought you had it rough loosing your babies, just imagine being in her shoes.....".  I smiled and nodded my head, but inside I was crushed.  Without going into specifics, the other woman unquestionably has some great difficulties ahead of her, but she didn't have to burry any of her children. How could the 2 circumstances possibly be compared? After the frie...

Starting a New Chapter, Part 1

It was late February, and Kent and I were sitting anxiously in the Doctor's office.  We were waiting to hear if our fears were correct, waiting to know if our baby had died.  Our fears were confirmed and our lives changed forever.  That baby we had prayed about and prayed for, the baby we were excitedly expecting was gone. We were at the beginning of our second trimester.  I was just starting to relax, the worry of miscarriage was all but gone.  Things had been going well.  I had normal pregnancy issues like nausea, and I was relieved that my Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) had gone into remission (that can happen when you are pregnant).  Ultra-Sounds had shown us a beautiful healthy baby. The decision to have another baby was not an easy one to make.  The meds I take for RA are dangerous to take during pregnancy and take quite a bit of time to leave your system.  I also knew that while I might go into remission during pregnancy, I...
