Nothing earth-shattering. We have friends stopping by in the early afternoon then going to my ILs' for Christmas part 2 with H's brother and his family.
**trigger warning** The friends who are coming over have a 3-month old baby girl. She's their rainbow after their son was stillborn in August 2014 (when I was about 21 weeks pregnant with DS). They're very dear, old friends but whenever I see them now I always feel so conscious of (and sad about) the fact that we had once talked about our sons going to college together. I never really know what to say and they are obviously so in love with their daughter but I am just anxious about the possibility that seeing DS tomorrow will put a damper on their holiday. I'm probably over-thinking it. **end trigger **
Moral of the story: being hung over never helps any situation.

Hugs dashook, while my loss is still pretty fresh and I don't have my rainbow yet I love anytime someone mentions Anneliese and acknowledges she existed or even the sadness H & I have this time of year. I hope that commentary helps.

Thank you, that does help. And big hugs to you as well.

P.S.-sorry to be a downer
I made the mistake of laying in bed to TCF for a bit last night. Promptly fell asleep!! Oops.
I can imagine how that would be tough. Hugs to your friend. I think it is very sweet that you are thinking about these things, but in reality there is not a lot you can really do. Be there for her if she needs you and recognize her needs if she has any. You are a great friend and I am sure you will do just fine.
