On Sepember 14, 2009 our lives were forver changed when the Dr told us that one of our twin boys had a condition called anencephaly and that it was incompatible with life. We chose to cherish every second that we were given with him. Cayden Ryan will live on forever in his twin brother Carter.

I was just sitting here tonight holding Carter and I had this urge to go on my blog and listen to all the songs that remind me of my sweet boy, Cayden. As I look at his picture and ashes on the mantle, all I can do is let the tears roll. I don't think that I do that enough and I fear the day that this really hits me. Little Carter has been having some tummy problems lately and has been extra fussy. I wonder sometimes if having his brother here would help him out a little. He must miss his touch. They were together and fighting for space and keeping each other company for 35 long weeks. I heard that when you have twins, you are supposed to let them sleep together cause they comfort each other. So, with that in mind, I must assume that having Cayden here would help Carter in some way. I think we all miss him so much, there are no words to even express the emptiness we all feel. I was holding Carter the other day at my daughters school and had a woman ask me, "can you imagine having two of him?" I was at loss of words. I wanted to scream- yes, I had 2 of him and I would give anything to have two of him again, but instead I just smiled at her. And for some reason, the whole twin thing seems to be haunting me. I see twins everywhere I go and read about twins and it feels so overwhelming sometimes. We are getting ready to go to Cape Cod this weekend and I can't help, but wish Cayden was here to go with us. You'll be their with me in my heart baby boy. Good-night, we love you!!
