Find a way to smile and never let it get away...TBD

I nodded as she spoke, " I just didn't think there would be any complications. It turns out here was nothing wrong with either of us. Just the baby....couldn't ....hold I guess is a good way to word it. " I said as I sighed. I picked up a nearby knife as I started to chop up the lettuce.

I understood her completely.  "No one expects complications, dear," I told her softly.  "And there's no use in fretting about them while you're being happy and excited."  I started to slice up some tomatoes.  I sighed gently and shook my head.  "Sometimes the reasons and explanations don't make any sense to us.  And bad things always tend to happen to good people.  You and Bill will be able to make it through this.  You'll just have to give it some time."  I put a hand on my daughter's shoulder and squeezed it slightly before returning to the task at hand.

I nodded as she spoke. What would I have done without her in this to help. " I just wish there was something I could have done. I feel as though I let everyone including the unborn baby down. That it's all my fault. " I explained. " You don't really think about the risks....you're right about that..." I agreed as I pulled my hair into a low ponytail just to keep it off my face.

I nodded understandingly.  I was not sure if there was much else I could do for her and Bill, but I would do my best.  "Honey, you two will get through this," I said softly.  "It will take time, but you'll make it through... you've got your entire family here to help you along, too."

I knew what she meant it still felt like there was something I could have done to make sure nothing happened. " It'll take some time...." I repeated. I smiled to Molly, " I am glad I never have to be by myself." I said with a smile. Bill's family took me in without any question.

I put a hand on Dora's shoulder and squeezed it.  "you're quite right," I assured her.  I heard som enoise behind us and saw Ros sneaking into the kitchen.  "And it looks like you have a little girl who might want to give her mummy a hug."  I smiled at the two of them.

Standing up I pulled my son into a hug. Not saying a word I knew he must have needed this. Feeling like he can actually let himself be upset because of how Dora is feeling. " the two of you are stayin here for a couple of days?" I had asked knowing I would feel his head move to answer me. " how abou we sit down?" I suggested.

I had been out playing with the chickens and the little gnomes that were in Nan and Pop's garden.  I came inside and saw Mumsy and Nan looking all sad.  "Mumsy!" I said, going to Dora and giving her a hug.  I loved her.  "What's wrong?"  I waned to know why they were sad.

I nodded into my dad's shoulder as I held onto him.  We sat down and rubbed my face with my hands.  "Dad...I don't even know what to do," I said to him honestly.

Well, she had to find out. " Well, you know how we were going to have a little brother or little sister?" I started as telling this to my little girl was going to be awful. " They weren't quite ready to come down to us yet. They went to heaven. " I said as tears came falling down my face. " You'll be a big sister, just not yet sweetie."

I put my hand on Mumsy's cheek and tried to get the tears away.  "That's okay," I said.  "We only want them to be with us when they're ready!  We're mental... they need extra training."

I felt myself grin, thank you so much for being your sweet self. Smiling, " I agree they will need help. You'll help them when they get her?" I asked her. This was killing me, but I was so happy that she understood and was seemingly handling it so well.
