why I haven't been sewing much . . .

You might have noticed that things have been a little quiet around here.  After having a miscarriage a few months ago I have had a difficult time believing that this is real . . .

  1. Yes, congratulations! May is the perfect time of year! Not too cold and not too hot. My poor Mother had me in West Texas before air conditioning, when ladies were supposed to dress nicely, in August. I don't know how she ever forgave me, ha,ha!
    Of course, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I know that is a separate sadness that takes its own time to heal. Thank goodness this life also gives us great joys. And I am looking forward to greeting your great bundle of joy in May!

  6. Huge congratulations love! *hugs* that is so exciting. I can understand your hesitancy to believe it is real, but soak it all in! I gave birth to my son stillborn last April, I really relate to your pain. Enjoy each moment of the pregnancy and I can't wait to see the new bundle of joy!

  8. Congratulations Erika! I can sympathize with the feelings following a miscarriage, having had 4 of them myself, along with 4 healthy babies as well. Your little ones are so cute, and all that hair on your daughter! Hope your pregnancy is non eventful and that you are gifted with a beautiful, healthy baby. May is a good month to give birth, as you have the entire summer to take your baby out and about, although I may be partial, given it's the month in which I were born. LOL

  16. Rosemary B here:
    Erika, I am so happy for all of you. God Bless you. I know you will have a smooth and easy pregnancy.
    This baby is already loved.

    I think many of us can relate to the miscarriage. I have had several too. It takes time to heal, and come to terms. I am an olden nurse, so I can just say, that it is never your fault or something you did. God makes our bodies strong. It just happens.

    I love you and your blog.
