I came in and I'm, you know, at this point, just a couple weeks away from delivery

and just heard the words that I never thought I would hear, which were just, I'm sorry.

And just had a moment to acknowledge what he was telling me that there was no heartbeat and that our baby had died.

Susan was devastated, but we reminded her of God's unfailing love.

And so focus on the family really was monumentally instrumental in teaching me this truth and healing me.

And the resource of focus on the family was teaching me to grieve with hope.

I'm Jim Daly.

Focus on the family.com slash family. Do you have ways where you regularly communicate with your

spouse? You kind of do a check-in. I remember my dad would come

home at noon most days when I was growing up and have lunch with the family. That seemed like a

really nice thing. I'm sure that he enjoyed seeing my mom, and I'm sure she enjoyed some adult

conversation instead of just us kids. I try to text, Dina, just little things.

Today, I knew she was here at Focus and parked out front.

So I put a little stuffed animal in her windshield wiper to just say, hey, I'm thinking of you.

She texted me and said, is this yours?

Like someone stalking me with stuffed animals.

But she got it and she smiled and that was the key.

Just little things.

So I'm John Fuller along with Greg and Aaron Smalley and we're going to hear now actually

from Greg and Aaron Smalley about ways that they check in and stay in communication with each other.
