In all seriousness, this was something we planned on keeping private, but the feeling of joy and anticipation is just overwhelming. As I try to imagine all the ways in which my life will never be same in just 6 short weeks, I wanted to thank all the people that reached out after I posted about our very early loss last October. I can't express to you what a difference it made for me to hear all your extremely personal stories. It truly gave me the hope that I needed and made me feel so much less alone. To all the friends and strangers who reached out to offer support- Thank you. Your generosity helped me. It made a big difference. Im sending all my love to anyone dealing with pregnancy loss at any stage. Know that as unique and singular as your reality might feel, there is a world of people going through the same thing, who want to share and connect and ease the pain. You are truly not alone. I'm paying all the strength that I received forward to you, for your rainbow after the storm. by @isaiahandtaylorphotography" .
