    ❤ girl, you took my breath away when baby Violet popped on screen. Unexpected , beautiful moment! ❤
    I can't imagine grief on top of post Partum hormones..I recall feeling like I'd been hit by a truck. You are truly a testament to faith. Picture all the negative thoughts and emotions in a pile , wrap them in a blanket and put them at the cross of Jesus. We are not made to carry that burden. There is joy in the Lord and I know by experience that time changes how one grieves. It never goes away but life goes on and pour your love into the beautiful gift God gave you, even more precious due to loss.

    Just remember, you don't need to stress. She's still very little and will mostly eat, sleep and poop . So maybe a bassinet somewhere in the family area with diapers, wipes and a few clothes nearby. Setting up a crib can be next month's job. You got this.Well done everyone.

Very happy for the Hamm family!

    I love the thank you gifts! When we lost a beloved dachshund after a rushed trip to the emergency vet, when it was time to pick up his ashes, we bought a big basket and put together a basket of treats for the staff to say thank you for everything they did to save him and give us the best possible goodbye to our fur baby. They were absolutely shocked and delighted. I guess no one thinks to say thank you to the emergency vet, especially when it wasn't a trip they could fix and send us home together.
