Boise!

Last weekend was State Girls Basketball and we were so excited to go and watch Taylor play!! They did awesome there first game against Kimberly and won. There second wasn't so good, they played Wendell. They had three huge girls on their team and it really threw them off and they lost, I can't remember the score. They lost again to Snake River. Callie and Me hanging out at Coltons apartment. She was totally zonked!! Colton and Kaysha, his girlfriend.
Clyde and Maria showed up to the first game. It was really great to see them. We don't see them enough!!!This was before the Snake River game. The girls spirits were down so all the mom's did this pow wow cheer. I forgot to bring in my camera or else I would have recorded it :(. It was hilarious!!The TeamKaysha and Callie hanging out. Callie had a blast playing with her this weekend and would hardly leave her alone!! It was kind of like having a babysitter with me to take care of Callie while I got to pay attention to the games. Thanks Kaysha! We made a trip to the mall while we were there and Brandon said were aren't spending any money. Well he decided to take Callie into Build a Bear while Taylor was shopping. Whoops! His first mistake. Second mistake was me going in to see what they were doing! We ended up getting her a pink monkey. I was very proud that we made it out only spending 12.70. We didn't look too much at the clothes so Callie didn't care. Well when we got back to Coltons apartment she thought it would be fun to get into the box.
When we got home I got all of Callie's preemie clothes out and they fit perfect!! (Minus the hole for the tail.)

What I Wish Everyone Knew

I wish everyone knew that this hurt never goes away. We still need support, and I still need to hear my son and daughters' name. Now, even more than before, I NEED to have their lives validated.

I wish everyone knew ....that even though my babies' deaths were the most painful experience of my life, I am grateful for the pain, and I would still choose to have them even knowing that it would end the same....and I would give anything to cuddle them in my arms again, if only for a brief moment.

I wish everyone knew... that my heart leaps with joy every time someone asks me about my babies.

I wish everyone knew that a baby's age or size at birth or death does not determine to how much of a person he or she was or how much they will be loved or missed.

I wish everyone knew that an early miscarriage and/or losing a tiny baby is just as difficult and painful as losing any other child.

I wish everyone knew how much I need to talk about mybabies, and how happy it makes me when someone asks about them.

I wish everyone knew the struggle that I go through everyday to answer the simplest questions, like: How many children do you have?

I wish everyone knew it is ok to talk about my loss.

I wish everyone knew that I think of my babies all the time.

I wish everyone knew that I have completely changed because of my experiences.

I wish everyone knew how much I love and miss my babies.

I wish everyone knew how much I need to talk about them and remember them.

I wish everyone knew what it felt like to hold them, still, perfect, breathtaking and have to leave them.

I wish everyone knew what it felt like to long for just 1 more second with their baby. Maybe then they could truly cherish all the billions of seconds they get with theirs.

I wish everyone knew that us mommies who lose our babies carry them with us everywhere we go...for the rest of our lives...and to say we are changed...is putting it rather lightly.

I wish everyone knew and appreciated what an absolute miracle each and every child is, from conception to birth, viable and enviable.

I wish everyone knew that even though I can smile and go to work and "function" like everyone else, I'm not like everyone else.

I wish everyone knew that even if you don't know what to say to me, saying nothing at all is more painful than you can imagine. Ignoring me and never speaking to me again because it makes you uncomfortable to be around me is worse than being uncomfortable or saying the wrong thing.
