February 16, 2015

I have been sitting here nervously debating how to write what I want to say for the last 30 minutes… What’s the best way to explain.. My stomach feels all bubbly with nerves.

But then Jonathan figured it out.. A video! .. Perfect..Though I will always miss the end of every video we make without Jennifer running up saying “can we watch it Mama?”

She said it without fail every single time I filmed her..

This video.. presented by Jonathan, Nicholas and Charlotte .. a gift from their big sister.

    Maybe this is Jennifers’ way of making sure that you remember what joy is even while still in the depths of your grief and agony. That, no matter how all encompassing the pain, you are still capable of the opposite of that pain too.

    Congratulations sweet Kranzs.

    It’s wonderful that you have such happy news. It won’t diminish your loss, and I hope people don’t expect it to. I imagine all the joy will be tinged with other feelings, good and bad. But this Kranz baby #5 will always have a guardian angel in her biggest sister, and I know she/he will be welcomed to this world into a family with so much love to give and share with her/him. Sending love for you all.

  76. Kristen Tredrea says:

    Omg omg omg!!! I have been away for a couple months at a location with spotty Internet reception (common in rural Australia) and I have missed reading the blog immensely. Still been spreading the glitter though. But what an entry to come back to. I’m actually crying with joy as I write this. I want to say something really eloquent but I can’t find words good enough to express my happiness. A new baby seems like such a Jennifer way to bring fresh joy into your lives. I can imagine her giggling with absolute glee as she watched her new sibling begin its life. Still the best big sister out xx.
