Hearts

I made a mistake yesterday. I went into the Carter's store. I was assaulted by girl clothes with hearts on them. Tunics with ladybugs and hearts. Cream coloured onesies with a big red heart on the front. 

Hearts, hearts everywhere...

Valentines is no longer a one day affair...it seems we need to lead up to it like we do Christmas. 

And every heart is for Eva. Every heart wrenches my heart. Christmas is over and I thought I would enter a time of having a breather but now I have hearts to avoid.

In some ways valentines is worse than Christmas because I know all those hearts would have been so special for us had our special heart girl lived here on earth.

    1. I have also read your story in AR. I chose to not put my blog address with the article even though I could have. Those who need my blog will find it. There are enough links to it here and there from baby and child loss sites. I also found yours through your comment on Angela's blog :)
