  1. Wow! I love the layout of your blog. It's bold, forthright and honest, easy-to-read. You've had a lot of life lessons, but still moving forward. That's wonderful! I can't imagine losing seven babies, born or unborn! I lost twins and another in my next pregnancy. It really affected my marriage. BTW, "angel babies" is a really nice way to express your loss. It's amazing that even though you lived through an abusive situation, you are still able to focus on romance. That's another thing we have in common. I'm a writer, too. Good luck with your book!

    1. Amy,

      Thank you so much! I tried to make my blog a model of myself. Life has been hard, but I know other's lives have been harder. And that is what gets me through each day. I lost my first baby at 17 years old. My family refuses to speak of any of them and my mother has actually informed me that admitting to losing 7 unborn children makes me sound like a whore. I am so glad that she never had to experience the pain, but I wish that she knew what it was like. I was told a year before I had my daughter that the odds of me carrying a healthy baby full term were slim to none. I had miscarried 5 times before I got pregnant with her. But I always lost the babies around 2 1/2 months. So once I passed that 3 month mark, I knew that I would be okay. My doctors told me that she had "fixed" whatever was wrong with my body... I miscarried twice more after she was born. :( Then my son came along and the same deal. I waited until I made it to three months to get excited. I now have 2 amazing miracle babies and even though I would like 2 more, I am scared of what I will have to go through to get there.

      There is always a silver lining and even though my ex was abusive, he taught me to be strong and stand up for myself. He taught me I deserve better. And my fiance has continued these lessons in a positive way. He has taught me to love myself and to not just love others. :)

      I am SO glad to meet another writer! I actually just posted the first chapter of my book in the post titled Unanswered Prayers. Feel free to read over it and tell me what you think!!
