That clanging sound you hear is me, taking the Dryer for a spin.
Shannon asked me to write a guest post.
I said I would, and then immediately felt regret. What could I write that would come close to her special brand of brilliance? Not a whole lot.
But I put together a little something and she graciously posted it today.
i enjoyed stopping by! i appreciated your post at rocks. you speak with great wisdom and insight. i’m a new mom and hope that i’m able to communicate with my kids as well as you did with sam.
and, while i’m not a colorado-an, i must say i love casa bonita!

Hello,
I read your post over at Shannon’s blog and it was fantastic. I sat here on the couch with my laptap and little sobs hiccuped out and I got the lumpy-throat-feeling at your beautiful post.
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful guest post!

It’s perfect, Gretchen. Witty and wise.
I can understand the intimidation — but your rock in Shannon’s dryer is pitch perfect.

WOW. I just finished reading most of your loss category. You are an amazing woman. Truly blessed in many ways in the midst of many trials. Thank you for writing so straight-forward and honest. Those, and the post you wrote for Shannon, have really helped me today.

I came here via Shannon’s blog. Your story brought me to tears, and even more so after I read the part about your own little one. I’m a fellow bereaved mom and I understand how your heart ached for your son’s pain in losing his first pet.
