Today would have been my EDD with Zachary. I have been dreading this day for two weeks and am trying my best not to break down. Dh should be home any minute with 21 balloons. I had though about releasing butterflies, but the weather had been so bad lately (and it is raining now) I am now glad I chose balloons.

There are 17, one for each week I was pregnant, and 4 individual, one each for me, DH, DD, and DS to release. I hope I can get some really good pictures ( I will post some on here if I do). I just couldn't let this day pass without recognizing my sweet angel in some way. It breaks my heart to think that I should be holding my new baby by now, on top of that I am so worried about the one I am pregnant with now. It's killing me. I just started crying and my 3 yr old DD is sitting here hugging me and saying "It's kay mommy". She is so sweet. I will update later with pics if I can.

Oh Heather, that must be so hard. What a sweet little girl you have to offer you some comfort in your time of need. That is a wonderful idea about the baloons to remember your angel.
I'm dreading my dd in September and what will make it worse is the fact that my neighbours will be having their babies around that same time....it will be a constant reminder.
