Dear Uterus, The oddest things effect me.
Today we are driving down to the town we previously lived in. We still have a storage unit there. Inside, I knew I was going to find a LOT of baby things.
I saved all of it. Tons of clothes, all of his toys, a brand new pack-n-play, a stroller.... all of it. I told myself that this would all be stuff that I could use again, for our next one.
I bought a lot of gender neutral things specifically for this reason.
I was prepared to feel sad, and some things got a bit of a sigh out of me, but mostly I was okay.
I took a look and started throwing things into the back of the truck to be taken to a donation center.
I told myself that just because I was getting rid of things, didn't mean I was getting rid of the hope.
Still, there were those few things--
Little itty bitty nail clippers, bottles...a rattle.... those things stung, just a little bit.
