Twenty years ago, I lost my baby and my husband in one devastating December. The only thing that held me together was buying toys for a little girl at a grocery store. This Christmas Eve, the girl knocked on my door, now grown, with tears in her eyes and a secret that would change everything.
It’s been two decades, and I still remember the way silence rang through my house that December. No baby cries. No lullabies. Just the ticking of a kitchen clock that didn’t care my world had shattered.I was five months pregnant when I lost my baby.No warnings. No final kicks.
