Day 223

Smiling gets easier on the outside. I wonder when it gets easier on the inside.

I ran into a friend today. We were pregnant at the same time. Our babies born a couple of weeks apart. Her baby just started walking. I smiled and touched the baby's little hand.

My heart pounded and I could sense my breath threatening to leave my body. The tears carefully hidden just beneath the surface. Felix was with me and I knew we were thinking the same things, wondering about our own boy. Feeling the same undeniable pain.
