The memorial service

Went better than I could have hoped. Around 10am, I seriously felt this immense wave of strength wash over me. I was able to say everything I wanted to say without crying once.

My whole biological family came too, it was the first time I've met all my half siblings in my life. They were wonderful. 

If you want to read what I said find it here: http://mrsrsuperstar.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-letter-to-my-babies.html

WARNING there are pictures of my babies at the end and I know that not everyone will be OK seeing them. I wont be offended if you can't look at them or read it.

     Ha, it's good to hear you cracking jokes again  :-)

     

  • you have been in my prayers every night since I came on the knot and found out what was happening. I know the pain you are going through and I can tell you from experience it will get better. you will always have them in your heart and if you ever get in a funk do what I do. I write a letter to my baby girl and then after stapling it to some ballons I go out side and send it to heaven. in fact I have done it almost every year for 11 yrs so my angel baby can know that I still think of her constantly.
  • Oh, Emily, your words were so beautiful and your babies are so beautiful as well. You did awesome, hun!
  • Emily, I can't even begin to tell you how much I admire your strength through all this. Your eulogy was beautiful as are your angel babies. I have you all in my prayers.

  • Emily, your eulogy is beautiful, as are your children.  Thank you for sharing everything with us, and through your blogposts.  We have all been thinking of you and Sean, and the babies, especially during their memorial.  Stay strong, through the good days and the bad.  Your children were loved from the moment they were conceived, and will be loved forever.  And we love you, too.
