Jen,
When we worked together at Balester Optical, I was pregnant with my son and Bobby was just a baby. I was so scared and unsure of myself. You helped me out so much. You gave me Bobby's clothes, toys, his carseat and a ton of great advice. I am so so sorry about the loss of your precious boy. My heart breaks for you.
