Days like this

I cannot believe my big boy is almost 2 months old, yet some days I find myself saying "it hasn't even been 2 months yet?!"
It feels like he's been with us forever <3

Watching him grow and learn is like a miracle unfolding before my eyes.
He truly is our rainbow after a long, hard storm and I am SO thankful for him!

With each passing day, I miss my babies more and more. Oh how I wish they could both be here. Our house would be full and our family complete <3 Harrison is one of the best things to ever happen to me, but there will always be a huge void in my heart for the babies I don't get to see grow up.

Seeing his personality unfold makes me wonder what Joshua would've been like. Would he be sweet but spunky like Abigail, or just a big cuddly sweetheart like Harrison?

Looking into his eyes, which are more and more like Abigail's every day, makes me wish I could hold her just one more time. I see pictures of friends/family who had babies around the same time as us, and I imagine our kiddos that big. It's hard.

Anyone who has never experienced the loss of a child can't even fathom the magnitude of pain and grief we parents feel. But I'm grateful for friends and family who have stuck by my side even when they don't understand. <3

Today I am grateful for my sweet little guy sleeping in my arms, and pray for peace within my heart.
