What I am saying is this blog is meant to help families, especially Catholic families, move forward after they loss a child at any point in life stillbirth baby, infant, toddler, preschooler, and right on up to adult. We are trying to move forward, not forget our lost family members. We want to help people take the memory of their loved ones into their journey forward.
I shared singing a joyful noise as a positive way keep us going. We also have a Peter garden in the spring/summer. I will say I have more things I need to work on daily. One being getting up when my alarm clock goes off in the morning.
What does your family do to stay positive? Is there any thing your family is working on to be positive?

staying positive after a loss is very hard! I lost my first pregnancy very early on, and when I was pregnant with Alexander I was afraid I would loss him too. After losing Alexander, I was scared being pregnant with both Julia and Elizabeth. one day at a time, sometimes one moment at a time is all you can do. (oh and as a little boy named Cole said just days before he died "Smile, Be Happy"!

Oh Nancy you know it! Staying positive one moment at a time! Smile, Be Happy that is exactly what we are working to achieve. It is hard but we have to try and begin again when we fall! You know that journey. We are living it!
DeleteI'm so sorry for your loss. I think staying grateful helps me stay positive so I've been working on that.
