More Sad Surprises

Well, Father's Day and Mother's Day alike have taken on a whole new meaning for our family. Days where we celebrate each other, but pelted with a noiseless house. In the movies, on TV and in life, there are the moments when a new mother and father are laying in bed, turned toward each other with their little bundle sleeping or cooing between them. Well, we did that sans baby. Instead we had a large, rectangular sized tissue box between us. Every so often plucking a tissue to catch the tears sliding down our noses. No baby, yet still mommy and daddy. Our heartbreaking moments are becoming fewer, but we know the sadness will never completely go away and I don't think we want it to cease. I titled this entry "More Sad Surprises" because we never know when something is going to bring up hurt until we are in the situation.
