Twenty eight years ago today I lost my little boy...

It still seems like yesterday.. He (Jack) was born prematurely and lived for two hours..
Stay Another Day was No 1.when he was born... I always manage to hear it on his birthday.. Today it was in the middle of Tescos when I was shopping with Mum and I started crying... He always seems to find a way of letting me know he is close... We've had feathers, ladybirds, and robins over the years.
Jack's buried in our family plot in a tiny village churchyard. There is another little boy K buried there who was stillborn a month before Ds2. I couldn't believe it this morning, as Mum pulled into the car park, a car pulled up in front of us. It was K's Mum. I gave her a hug and said to her that our boys obviously meant us to see each other this morning...💙 💙

Hugs from one mum to another. I lost my son nine years ago. 💔

Well we have had a robin at work for the last few weeks, in the shop and in my bakery... Today it was hopping round the yard when I was sorting my delivery in the rain... Also I was thinking of Jack and another of his songs To Where You Are by Josh Groban came on.... Happy New Year my sweet darling boy... 💙 💙 JACK 💙 💙

Hi OP so lovely to see your update, I've been following your thread. I'm sorry for your pain. I hope you didn't mind but I lit a candle at church last week for Jack and K/K's mum and yourself. So you had someone thinking about you all on Christmas day. Much love to you 💐
