Yesterday I went to my regular doctor's appt. They could not find the baby's heartbeat. Ultrasound showed that for reasons that are simply unknown right now, the baby has died. If I do not deliver on my own by Monday, then I will be induced. We know that God has a purpose in every life, no matter how short. Right now, there are a jumble of feelings. I'm sure the coming days will be no different. We went to my son and told him in person. He came on home as he wants to be here for all of us, particularly FlowerChild, as she leans on him so much.

You lucky dog! It's in the single digets here, and when it "warm's up" it will still only be in the 40's burrrrr. We're still sick here, but surviving on chicken noodle soup. I'm more excited than I should be because Hubby is going to brave the cold tonight and get our groceries. What a treat! Stay warm!

Marie: Tell me about it! It has gotten to 32 here so far today without wind chill. The forecast for the next week has it staying cold but I figure about the time we get used to it the temps will shoot up. Then we'll all get sick! I'm so sorry ya'll are sick but it's good that your husband can do the going for you! Take care now!
