Thoughts needed for fellow bloggers

This morning, while Logan was napping and Ben was watching Little Einsteins (his new favorite show), I took advantage of some downtime to read some of the blogs I follow. By clicking on some of the authors' linked-to blogs (does that even make sense?) I found two stories of heartbreaking loss.

One mom was due with her first baby, a son, in two weeks. At a routine doctor's appointment, it was discovered that the baby had passed away due to umbilical cord strangulation. Ugh... what a tragedy. Read her story here.

Another mom just lost her adorable daughter, Tuesday, to cancer a few days ago. She was almost the exact age as Ben - I think that's what made her story even more moving for me. Read her story here.

Sorry to be a downer... I just thought these stories needed to be shared...

I have a hard time reading posts like that. I'm so sensitive to them now that I have children. But they are amazing stories that should be shared. Thanks for sharing them.
