Another thing I did was go through all D's old clothes from the time she was a baby. I kept all the stuff thinking I would have a second child, maybe a girl. I did have one early miscarriage after D was born, ironically OW1 was there in the hospital with me that day, helping me...

So looking through those clothes was a bitter sweet trip down memory lane. Thinking about how beautiful D was at different stages of her life, how our children are so wee when young.

Also thinking how my dream of having a "family" has been taken away from me. Not two children, not a sibling for D, not even a husband and father around now.

How ironical that H would rage at me on Christmas Eve last that I had "stolen" everything from him.

Anyway, the clothes and toys are all sorted to give away to a couple of people with younger kids...
