When I come into situations like these that make me uncomfortable/upset/etc I try to remember what happened so that in the future I can try to plan a little better to avoid it - by either having someone else do the errand for me or seeking out a different place, different circumstance like purchasing/ordering online, etc. <br /><br />When all else fails, sometimes all I can do is nod and smile and hope for it to be over quickly.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16782799551687845797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2444240168435786429.post-54619571381106646492012-01-12T12:14:32.038-06:002012-01-12T12:14:32.038-06:00These reminders of what we are missing out on are ...These reminders of what we are missing out on are so tough.

Grrr, no, not twins, and how about this, THEY'RE BOTH DEAD! I just said no and left it at that. I know people don't understand and are trying to be nice, but man that was hard to hear. Yesterday I got balloons for Adam and was told they'd only last 8-10 hours. I was thinking, doesn't matter, they're being released in like an hour. Blah. Anyways, I have been thinking about you all. Much love, always.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548457462997589508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2444240168435786429.post-40760483137069432552012-01-12T08:15:24.191-06:002012-01-12T08:15:24.191-06:00I am so sorry you have to go through this and I kn...I am so sorry you have to go through this and I know your pain too well...when I bought Logan's balloons for his 1st birthday/anniversary the guy kept asking me questions and I thought I was going to lose it. When he asked me what time the party was because he didn't want the balloons to run out of helium I just stared at him and finally said it doesn't matter because we are releasing the balloons because my son is in heaven...needless to say the conversation stopped there!!!<br /><br />Praying for some peace for you and your family this weekend as you celebrate Ellie's birthday.

People need to learn to take the hint and not try to get so personal with a check out conversation. <br /><br />I hope that Ellie's birthday comes and goes with a peaceful feeling for you. I'm sure it will be hard and torturous but you'll get through it. <br /><br />I'll be thinking of you, your family and most importantly your sweet angel girl.<br /><br />~LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13130330798468667706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2444240168435786429.post-16121932913545922822012-01-11T23:24:08.422-06:002012-01-11T23:24:08.422-06:00I cried and cried reading this.

Can't we just be spared from having to answer such questions that require us to lie for their sake?<br /><br />I'm sorry. I'll always, always be sorry Ellie is not here to celebrate her own life. It's a damning reality. Wishing you guys a swift weekend.B. Wilson @ Windy {City} Wilsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17479551028143520755noreply@blogger.com
