Meeting that right person

I am enjoying reading the 'Right Where I Am' posts. Thank you all for your comments; I will visit your blogs when I can.

Little Beanie has a friend that was born on the same day.  We all met after they were born, but became fast friends. It's sad to leave them - we have even joked about them moving down to TX after we get settled.

Last week, on FB I asked if anyone could play with Bea for a few hours so I could get some packing done and Triple S could study. Of all my friends, all the people I've known for years, all the people that said 'we'll babysit anytime', this husband and wife volunteered.

On our first playdate, back in late fall or early winter, the mom and I talked. I talked about Serenity, and she told me that she lost twin boys.

And I wonder how she and her husband felt chasing after two toddlers born on the same day.  Close, but not quite right.

It must be so hard, leaving this place you've come to know so well. Sending love.

Wow. I'm glad you know them, and sorry you can't take them with you when you move.

Wow.

Where in Tx are you moving?

It feels odd to be glad to have a friend who lost her daughter too, but we understand each other. Glad she's a friend.
