what i wouldnt give to be young, happy, sexy, hopeful, and 21 again. halloween 8 years ago, truely a different lifetime. who ARE these people?! except that john looks the same... he's still as gorgeous as adonis. except that right now he's so stressed out, his normally healthy immune system is down and he has the c...hills and is hacking up a lung next to me. seriously.. who would have thought going to this halloween party that night as bonnie and clyde, where we won a little pumpkin with handcuffs on it and a gift card for "best looking couple" (ha!), that we'd later have a pumpkin with our deceased daughter's name written on it, sitting on the porch outside instead.
(((Hugs)))
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you don't have Kathlyn with you. But I'm glad that you still have each other, in good times and in bad.
P.S. Have you read Ter's blog, "With an angel on my shoulder?" She had a stillborn daughter and then lost her husband. Ter has a campaign for babylost mums in Canada and the US that I thought you might be interested in - check out http://withanangelonmyshoulder.blogspot.com/2009/10/patches-bear-wants-to-visit-you.html
ReplyDeleteYou guys look great! I love how you talk about John. You really love him, and it shows.
ReplyDeleteTo be you and naive again, right? My husband and I always talk about our wedding day. And, how we pledged "for better or for worse." Not knowing at all what "worse" was. You and your husband are adorable.
ReplyDeleteAw you both look lovely in the photograph. I'm so sorry Beth. When I look back through my old photos I hardly recognise myself or my husband either. xo
