One becomes a greater person by the experiences and hurts of the past.

They surpass themselves to become better or worse than the person they once were,

And they grow as a human being to become what they were meant to be.
I thought of this when I gave birth to my second daughter, Seraph Rose-Raine... nearly a year after the death of my 7 month old baby girl, Emily Angel-Rose...


I was feeling sad because, to me, it felt as if I was replacing my lost child with a new one, and I didn't have the strength at the time to realize...

I wasn't replacing a daughter so much as I was bringing a new one into the world.

Not long after, I was forced to realize that I had to get through the hurts and anguish of my past to become the mommy I needed to be for Seraph.

And by doing so, I grew... not just as a woman, not just as mommy... I grew as a human being in general... and the personal lessons I learn for myself everyday are worth a million times more then their weight in gold.
