Me and Ollie are laying in bed and Ollie seems like he can go off to sleep quickly even under the circumstances. Every time I shut my eyes all i can think about is me holding a precious baby in my arms. I just can't move on. I have never really grieved for anyone. I had a lot of times where I needed my mum so I grieved but other than that I have never came across the feeling.Ollie put his arm around my waist as he felt me shuffling around on the bed."Are you ok zosh? I know that what we are going through is terrible and that going to work is bad as everyone is so sympathetic and awkward but maybe it will do you good to talk to someone other than me. Maybe you should talk to Mo, she knows what it's like to loose a child and she could help you." "I just can't believe that it has happened to us after all of this time." Mackenzie walked in and jumped onto the bed. "Hi mummy, I just wanted to say that I am sorry that you lost The babies and that I am going to help out a lot more in the house and I will try to stop fighting with Maisy even though she is annoying." Mackenzie somehow makes me see sense. If an eight year old can do that then imagine what else she can do. "Thank you sweetie, your a very good girl, where is Maisy?" "Um, well she has been crying, for months now she has been looking forward to having a baby in the house. She has drew pictures and has made a chore list for me and her to do and now that The babies  is no longer here,Maisy has took it very bad and she doesn't want to come out of  our room." Poor Maisy, I knew that at least one of them wouldn't take it very well." I hoped up out of bed and knocked on Maisy's door. "Come in." I walk in to find Maisy crying on her bed. "Mummy, I don't want to let go of The babies, why did this happen? I just wanted to know what it is like to have a baby in the house. I drew lots of pictures of what The babies may of looked like and now I just feel that a part of the family is missing. Now all our life will be is empty." "Look darling.." Before I had a chance to finish Ollie came in. "Look, it's not mummy's fault or your fault or my fault or even Mackenzie's fault. It's just what the world is like, it doesn't give you everything you want but life just has to go on. We will put those pictures on the fridge to remind us of the babies but please don't cry." "Ok daddy, I won't."

Me and zosia left her room and made our way back into our room. "Look Zosia, I don't like seeing you or the children upset so I was wondering if you would like to try for a baby together." "Really, you really want a baby with me? But I'm horrible." "No you are not zosh, I would love to have a child with you." "Really, I would love to, love you Ollie." "Love you Zosia."
