bittersweet day

[DelGirl]

Wasn't sure where to post this and whether or not to post at all but my heart is set to burst. Sorry if that sounds really mushy but DH died 3 years ago today and now I have his DD who will be 7 weeks old on Sunday.

She has had the best nights sleep I think she's ever had and therefore, so have I. And she's been smiling and making contented noises this morning. I would say all morning but that would be a slight exaggeration.

Anyway, I just want to squeeze her so tight and would eat her if I could. More than a big part of me thinks that DH is looking down on us today, if not everyday. Such a shame he's not here to share DD with me, she's so beautiful, just like he was

oh delgirl, you are so lucky to have your little girl, its oyur dh right beside you , how wonderful medicine can be and my heart aches for you, thinking of you

Delgirl, I am sure wherever he is, dh is looking down on the pair of you. He must be so proud of your strength and of the miracle you both created. Cuddle your beautiful dd, she is absolutely perfect.

Delgirl - definitely a sunshine through the rain day and your dd is the rainbow .

My thoughts are with you Delgirl.

Hugs to you and your DD {{{{{{{{{{{}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

I can not even begin to imagine your agony at losing your DH... but I do know the joy of kids and I hope that your DD is helping you along your path.. it must be a huge comfort to you knowing that you can still 'hold' your DH in your DD.. your story has made me cry thinking you never got to share your DD together but I am sure you feel him close by..

just seen her picture and she is stunning

I know we spoke earlier but just wanted to say that when I first got to know you I was just knocked out by what an amazing person you are to have gone through what you have. DH will always be looking after you and Amelia and he will always be in your thoughts. Enjoy your evening with your friends and see you Tues.

It must be such a bittersweet time for you, Delgirl, no wonder your heart feels fit to burst. Best wishes to the Delgirl family.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts today, they mean alot. Today has been ok, DD has been so wonderful, I can't help but smile although I do feel sad too. A couple of friends came over tonight which was really nice and we raised a glass to my DH. He would be bowled over with his little girl.

Merlin, you make me , you all do in fact cos really, anyone in the same situation, god forbid, would be the same. You have no choice but to just get on with it really but it has been a hard 3 years I admit. However, I have a bright future ahead with DD with lots of laughs and tears and no doubt tantrums to look forward too and best of all, loads and loads of hugs

Not today

This is a really good story to explain to children about people who have gone before us, come back another time and click on it, but just wanted you to have it.

Thinking of you and your lovely little girl - your dh would have been so proud and am sure your dd will grow up to know just how special she is and how special her daddy was. I expect he's looking down on you both now and beaming with pride and joy. Be happy DG.

i didnt know. you and your dh (cos he is you know) are blessed with a lovely little girl. enjoy her.

Delgirl, that is so wonderful that you have this gift from him. Im sure you feel blessed and so grateful! Cherish your DD everyday....which im sure you do!
