Our daughter, Aurora, never took a breath, nor greeted the world with a bellow. But she lived and she will continue to live in our hearts and memories. Aurora Rose was born on April 21, 2010 at 11:59pm. She was 4lbs 2.8oz and 17 1/4 inches long. She is our beautiful angel in heaven.

Aurora at Bunko!
Last night, at my monthly bunko party, I was having a particulalry difficult night... mostly because of my post below. And the very first game we played, I ended up getting 4 wins, 2 losses and 1 bunko!! For a total of 4-2-1!
I'm taking it as a sign that Aurora was with me last night, helping me through a difficult night, helping me stay strong! Thank you for that honey. I am loving all of my signs.
I am loving all of my penny dreams. I dreamed of pennies again last night. I know they're your way of coming through to me in my dreams.
Somebody needs to have a girl!
I really, really hate when family members talk about other people's pregnancies and say "Well, I hope it's a girl, because somebody needs to have a girl around here!" It's like a stab in the heart. Somebody did have a girl around here!!! I think what you really want to say is "Somebody needs to have an alive girl around here." I understand that on my mothers side of the family, all of my mothers alive grandchildren are boys, all of my aunts grandchildren are boys, all of my uncles grandchildren are boys, all of the close friends grandchildren are boys, all of my 2nd cousins grandchildren are boys... I get it. We have a lot of boys.
But to say "somebody needs to have a girl around here" is so hurtful. I know that they do not mean it that way, but I always smile my fake smile and then cry about it later.
It also makes me feel like a failure. Everyone wants a girl so badly, I had a girl, but I just couldn't keep her alive. It wasn't good enough to satisfy their needs of a little girl. I failed them.
Who knew such a simple saying could affect me so, especially almost 2 years later!

Is this her way of coming through?
It was a house party, and the first person she read was my aunt. My grandmother {GG}, came through first thing. And one of the first things my grandmother came through with, is that she had a little one with her, Aurora.
When it came time to read me, I asked about Aurora. One of the first things the medium asked me is if I had any dreams about Aurora. In which I told her I had only had one that I remembered. However, this got me thinking. Did she mention this thinking I had dreams of Aurora all of the time?
I do dream about something a lot, multiple times a week. I dream about pennies. Last night I dreamed that I was picking up penny after penny after penny. Usually in my dreams it's not just one penny, it's 10+ pennies all at a time. Could my dreaming of pennies be Aurora's way of dreaming about her? Even if it isn't, I love to dream about pennies because it makes me think of Aurora. It makes me feel how much love she is sending for me.

2010 Quarter!
Aurora has her own box, and up until now, I had only been able to find pennies and nickles. Well, I found a quarter!! What a small simple thing that fills my heart with joy. A 2010 quarter for Aurora's box for New Years. All we need is a dime, and it's complete!
Of course getting a dollar coin and a half dollar would be perfect as well, but I will not bank on getting those. The four basic coins are all that we are hoping for.
