“He is going to get big and strong and then come home, and you’re going to teach him to play football,” Right there...THIS is when I cried. Oh honey.

I cant wait to meet your little miracle.

This is just perfect baby. Perfect.

Aww hon HUGS you, the kids are gonna love you :D seriously, I was laughing and crying at Kieran's comment, but Kimmi's determination at this exact moment, the "and you're gonna teach him to play football" as if life had already been decided and there was no doubt he was going to make it (this was at a time where he was really touch and go, and the dr's let the kids in because they thought they deserved a chance to say goodbye) it just span my world around and gave me hope where I thought there was none.

and thanks so so much for your kind words babe

Thank you for sharing. This was hard to read without wanting to cry, I am sure it was hard to write. But I am glad to have read in the comments that he did finally get better.

Thank you very much. Yes it was an emotional piece to write, but for some reason, as soon as I had tied the little feet theme to Kieran's words as a toddler it refused to leave my head and let me write anything else :)

This made me cry and then it made me cry and then I cried some more.

These stories could not come at a better time for me. Thank you for writing this and giving me so much hope through your words.

*hugs to you and wee Robert*

Touching story, and beautifully written. I love the intera interaction you and your husband had with the kids.
