Christmas was such a hard time for us this year. It just felt so strange to have been pregnant at this time last year, thinking ahead to our next Christmas as a family. But it was not the Christmas we pictured last year, b/c our little boy wasn't there to celebrate with us.
It really helped to walk in and see a stocking for Mason hanging on the steps. My mom made Mason a Christmas stocking just like all of her kids and grandkids have, with presents in it. It felt so great to have our family remember him by giving us an ornament and other presents and making a donation in his name to help other children, it went a long way to help us feel like Mason was a small part of our Christmas even though he wasn't there with us.
