Busy

So I took a break.  A break from facebook, blogging even instagram.  I didn't really do it on purpose but I think I needed it.  I've also been pretty busy.  

Of course I've been chasing Sarah around everywhere.  She's climbing on everything.  She pushed a chair up to the counter and got in the kitchen drawer.  Oh boy to I have a curious little girl.  She had her 15 month check up earlier this month.  All went well.  She's on the petite side but the doctor said as long as she gains weight then she will be fine.  She walked up the stairs at the pediatricians office about 10 times and would have kept doing it if we hadn't left. 

Such a stink!

So independent

Her doctor is the same one that Jack saw.  When she first came in she acted like she recognized me but thought it was because of Sarah.  A little later she asked if I had other children and I reminded her of Jack and then she remembered everything.  We talked a little about what happened, she said she had been thinking about us and wondered if she would ever get to see me again.  It was difficult going back to her but also I felt comfort in knowing that we were on her mind.

I've started working again.  It feels good to get out there but I missed that little girl.  I had to get big hugs before I left. 

She gives the BEST hugs!



Since I'm working in Lexington I got to visit Jack's tree and the cemetery.  It was gorgeous both days.

My babies

I love the fall colors in the background

I saw a grief counselor for the first time.  I really feel like she will help me work through all of my thoughts and emotions.  I've had such a good experience with social workers in the past and I know that talking through things will really help me.
