>I am a 35 year old mother of 2 living children. My second child, Sara Elizabeth, we miscarried at 12 weeks. There will always be a hiden place inside of you that pains at the thought of your Ethan. However, moving on does not mean forgetting. Your son needs you now just like my daughter needed me.
I lost Sara Elizabeth when my Emily was almost 4 years old. She tried to understand and did well for her years but she needed me! After much pray, God made it clear to me that he had given my 2 daughters and the one I got to keep with me needed to know she was just as important as the one I didn't get to keep. Some how, I think deep inside of me, I felt if I let myself "go-on" that it would mean I didn't care anymore, or was "over-it". But God made me understand that taking care of what I had didn't mean I loved what I lost any less. Don't be afraid to move forward with your life. It won't cause you to forget him, it will honor him. And only through time, will your memories of Ethan, no matter how brief, will turn from pain to precious.
