Today was tough...

I won't lie.... Today was REALLY tough....

I paid for Tyce & Shyloh's grave stone... No mother EVER thinks they will be buying their children's headstone. Yet, today we did. I always thought we would beat the odds.... we wouldn't be THOSE parents. We would feel sorry and pray for THOSE parents.... But, here we are.... THOSE parents.... We bought flags for their grave site today for the 4th of July.

I've learned how to control/hide my emotions. It's just hard at the shop at times... Some people don't know that I lost the twins and ask how their doing or ask if I'm having boys or girls and I have to explain that I lost them..... and then some people ask questions about how I lost them...

Today was just very hard.........

Prayers going up for you I know how har it can be my son's funeral alone was $4000 and his headstone another $2500. I know it tough but the days do get easier with time. When people ask me if my children are twins, I can't bring myself to except that and sometimes tell them the truth that their bronther is in Heaven and other times when they ask where the 3rd baby is when I correct them and explain they are triplets...I just say, "He is not with us right now."
