Beautiful post, Christina. And what wonderful words that the pastor shared of his little life too (only seeing Jesus).

Please don’t EVER think or say you talk about the girls too much! They were real, they were here…and now they’re in heaven. I miss them still too! (Just as much as their cousin.) I’m so glad you felt Angelina with you. What a special moment that must have been! Your post made me cry for them like I haven’t in a long time. May God bless you Sis for what you’ve been through, for your strength and for those beautiful boys. I ADORE them too with all my heart and realize how much life would be different now had things turned out otherwise then. But, I can’t even imagine life without a Nicholas, a Christopher or an Andrew either. <3 (Just like I can't imagine no Danny) <3 So HONOR them ALL Sis! And Honor yourself too! You all deserve it! I admire you and I love you all very much. <3 ~ Your Sis

You know girl, I have NEVER thought you talk about your girls too much! I know how big of a impact they have on your life and I LOVE it when you include them. You are right, your girls probably would have already started kindergarten even though Evan will not start until this fall. Even though our kids were due at the same time, do you remember us talking about how because it was twins you would probably deliver before me (little did we know then). If they were with us here on Earth today, they would probably have been a year ahead Evan. I didn’t think about that until you talked about it above. That is just one reason WHY I love it when you talk about them. Please, don’t stop, no matter what. *LOVE & HUGS TO YOU*

I swear I hear a laughter sometimes and think it’s Hayley, then realize Hayley is sitting in the room with me… I know it’s Sydney. Only someone that has not suffered a great loss would think it sounds crazy – for us it is normal to think of our babies every day. But, as you bring up, it’s a very hard to grasp feeling when you miss them, feel such a void, yet in the same breath know that had they lived, what we have now would not be. I love Austin so much. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this little boy. Yet, had Sydney lived, he would not be here. Two children was our limit. Had she lived, he never would have been born. I miss her every minute of every day. Her absence pains me as much now as the day she died. I can’t imagine not having my son. I’m so glad we have our network of “us”. Truly, having the support is what helped me get through it. I would not have made it without my “girls”. Love from your internet friend.

Comment on Life with boys. And ASD. And being a WAHM. by Kristi

I am sooooo happy to see you post!!! Keep it up. Quick posts here and there. One picture….how about that picture of the 3 boys you just took….slap it on here with a couple quick sentences. Nothing fancy or overly time consuming. Your family blog & memories are just as important (ok, more important) than creating memories for other people through pictures. These are YOUR memories. Keep blogging….and then holler when you are ready to print a book of it and I’ll help!

My bestfriend became my best friend because we were both in the club. It’s so interesting that you called it that. “Welcome to the worst club in the world, it effing sucks. Sorry you joined us.” That’s what I said.

I’m so sorry you’re in the club too. I wish I had known earlier. I could have listened.

I also will always remember the day. I remember being at TW & Friends for dinner wondering where you were. I couldn’t undertand why you didn’t show. I had recently spoken with you and was expecting you. I kept asking if anyone had heard from you. I wondered what was going on. I knew it wasn’t right that you didn’t come, but not really understanding.

My thoughts are with you.
