okay. i guess this is the right place to post this. i gave birth to an adorable baby boy last week. i now have three kids. my oldest daughter (maya) was only here with us breifly. she was born with a hole in her heart and passed away days after she was born. my second daughter (annabell) is 2, and my little man is 5 days old. anyway... i was talking on the phone to my sister who says
"how does if feel to be a mother of two kids"
i respond "well, i a mother of three kids, actually"
she says "huh? three kids?"
"yes, three kids"
"oh! maya. i forgot"
"yeah" wth do you say to this? then she responds..
"well, she doesn't really count. she was only here for such a short time"
WHAT? WHAT? she doesn't count?? you know what. F**k her! she counts just as much as my living children. why wouldn't she count? she is my child, she was born to me. she lived, she breathed. she was HERE. she counts!! people are so insensitive. i hate discussing the death of my daughter with anyone other than my husband. no one understands.
