Before Nichole, Cheryl and Katie paired me up with Jessica as my Red Dress Club’s Red Writing Hood writing partner, I didn’t know her or her story at all.
Jessica is the mother of an autistic teenager, gave birth to triplets and lost one and then had a son that is nearly Lucas’ age. Her blog, Four Plus an Angel is beautiful, heartbreaking and inspirational. I’m honored to call her my friend and her writing, her story never ceases to move me.
Sadly, we have both suffered great loss in our lives and we write about it often. We write about our grief not because we want (or need) pity, but because it is always with us and writing about it helps. It’s healing.
I am over at Jessica’s today talking about why grief sucks. I promise it’s not all that sad, just a fact life.
Please stop by and leave us a hug.

I just read your post at Jessica's place. I've lost people in my life and sometimes it's hard knowing my own kids will never really know them.
That was a touching post. Thank you for sharing. Hugs!
Jessica says
So honored that you shared your story on my blog today. Hugs to you!

Your post over there was excellent and made me tear up a little (which is rare when I am not pregnant) because my husband's dad passed away when he was young. He is constantly missed, especially now that we have children.
