I came across this quote today from Laura Kelly Fanucci, a fellow bereaved mom, via a friend/dad who is grieving and remembering (after the recent death of his baby) on this, October 15th, National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. These words struck and ring true for me, almost 14 years since we experienced our first of […]

I watched the Grey’s Anatomy Season 14 Finale on DVR today and realized that it’s been 10 years since Bob and I (who were late to the party) started binge watching the previous four seasons to catch up in time for Season 5 that Fall. It was something we did together, after Molly was born […]

Sometime over the past week, after our Molly-girl’s birthday had come and gone, I realized that for the first time, in 10 years, I forgot to post my letter to her on our BabyBenson2008 CarePage after sharing it here on my blog. I felt sad about that, as we received so much support on our […]

Happy 10th Heavenly Birthday, Molly Marie! Double Digits. Two candles (a one and a zero) this year at your grave, instead of on a birthday cake. How has it been ten years? So much time has passed since we held you. So much time has passed since you left this world. For so long, your […]

Seriously?! How is it possible that you are now eight? I can still remember getting settled into our pre-op room at Christ Hospital, before the c-section to deliver you. I recall how many times I repeated our doctor’s mantra for us, “September 17th is going to be a happy day!” I was afraid to believe […]

Happy 9th Heavenly Birthday, Molly Marie! Another year around the sun. Another year since you were here. It’s been 9 years since I carried you. 9 years since you were born and died. 9 years since your family held you in our arms. And no matter how much time passes, you are never far from […]
