rubies and love songs

30 Jul

I’m usually not a big cupcake fan (well mostly because of their recent surge in popularity). I really prefer chocolate cake, a chocolate brownie or a chocolate chip cookie. Are you seeing a pattern here? Chocoholic. At any rate, this is just delightful. I couldn’t resist sharing it.

Merry weekend!

    How do you hate cupcakes? There so good. Like a comfort food.

    I’m really really sorry about your loss.

    I’m not going to say everythings going to be okay – cause it isn’t. Or how the next baby will make up for everything. It won’t. That baby is gone and I’m so very very sorry. I’m sorry you are hurting and that something so horrible happened to you.

    I love reading your blog. Thank you for sharing your private hell with us. Don’t ever feel guilty or disappointing, or wrong for hurting. I haven’t had that kind of loss, but I’ve been up close and personal with it as a labor and delivery nurse. Its part of the reason I don’t work in that area anymore. It was too heavy. Too dark. I work now with sick people, sometimes helping them die. And it can’t even compare to little ones. I would see them when I closed my eyes, and I would hear their mother’s cries echo in my mind. Many many, too many, times after work I would lubricate and neutralize those images in Jagermeister and tequila. It took the images and sounds away – for awhile. Even a little while was a relief. But as you know, alcohol doesn’t erase, it just complicates.

    I wish you all the luck in getting pregnant again.

    You are going to be such a good Mommy.
