What a wonderfully human warm tale, and so beautifully told. I am much moved reading this. Congratulations to you all for this new addition to your family. Your own pain is deep but your sister’s love for you and your love for her and her baby are so true and beautiful as to ease it in the most wonderful way.

You are a dear and lovely woman to put aside your pain for your sister’s sake and I truly hope you find the peace you deserve. Your honesty and self-knowledge are beautiful in and of themselves and your niece, most assuredly has a lovely aunt to love and look up to.

What a truly beautiful post. It always amazes me how much power love has to turn an event around and make you feel far differently than you expected. Congratulations all round…

me.

I meant to say “me” after “excuse”. And just like you described in your other post about wishing for a spell checker, I clicked SUBMIT and gasped in horror.

Now what spell checker would catch THAT?

Oh Tricia, this post belongs out there in a mainstream magazine somewhere. It’s so beautiful. Now if you’ll excuse, I need to go find a tissue.

And, congratulations!

Wow. This post totally made me teary. I know that crying where you can’t even get the words out. I’m glad that you stayed and I bet your sister is too.

By the way, I was one of those sweaty, puffy, did-she-just-give-birth-to-a-litter-of-German-Shepherds women. Your sister is LUCKY!
