As a mom of an angel baby and an earth baby, I really appreciated it when
people acknowledged that Alli wasn't my first child. Too often, you're
expected to have "gotten over it" just by the miracle of getting pregnant
and having a healthy baby, and actually if anything that living child in
your arms makes it even more apparent what you've lost. My angel would be
four now.

I like how you word that, Angel baby and earth baby. Thank-you for
your input as a mother who has lost a child. I'm sorry for your loss.
