A Sad Post

Is it okay to write a sad post? I think it should be, because I'm sad.

My baby died. :(

This past week has been a long painful miscarriage and I'm very sad to have lost my perfect little angel baby.

For the record, miscarriages are miserable.

I try to focus on the positive such as:

• Now I can ride on roller coasters again. Maybe I will go to Lagoon.
• I can eat whatever I want.
• I can get more schooling done before adding to our family.
• Myles can now take an internship this summer anywhere in America without having to work around out due date.
• We adopted a puppy.

His name is Joey.

We are very excited to have a happy puppy in our home, although he can be naughty. He helps to cheer me up during the day, especially when Myles is gone. He can be a handful sometimes, but I know it's not much compared to what a baby will be like. We love him. :)

Also, our anniversary is coming up! The puppy is an anniversary present as well as a consolation to us. But how should we celebrate? I'm trying to convince Myles that we should go to Lagoon! Hopefully we will go. :)

10 Reasons I Love My Husband

If this will make you barf, you don't have to read it, but I think it's important to record the reasons I love him.

1. I've had a box of truffles in the fridge for almost a month and Myles hasn't even touched them. Now if that's not true love, what is?!

2. He hugs me and kisses my face every morning even when I'm half asleep and haven't brushed my teeth.

3. He has the most perfect smile in the whole world.

4. I get to see that perfect smile every day when we snuggle and laugh together. Snuggling+laughing=love.

5. He works so hard in school and work, and then comes home and makes dinner and does other things for me and baby.

6. He sings along to country music songs. With character too. Then laughs at himself. :D

7. He gives the best kisses in the whole world and has the nicest lips ever.

8. When he wakes up in the morning he stretches (arches his back, bends his elbows) and makes screeching dinosaur noises.

9. He talks to baby, dreams about him (he is certain we're having a boy), is the perfect uncle to our nieces and nephews, and is so excited to be a Daddy! Plus he likes cool baby names.

10. He loves me a lot. :)
