So, I'm watching my friend's little man today and as he and my son are beautifully getting along it hits me that he's only two months older than what Gabe should be. Crazy. As many times as I've been around him, I've never even thought about that! So, I have to make a decision. Be upset and start a tangent of what-if questions? Or, give it up, and enjoy my day.
I think what's been helpful this morning is that I have received two emails from two griveing mommas just today. One, a precious mother I just had to privilege of meeting in person who lost her angel a few short months ago, the other momma still pregnant with her angel baby, dealing with carrying to term. Both reaching out to talk to me, someone who's been in their shoes. It makes me feel amazing. It makes me focus on them, and gets my mind off of me. It's so easy to feel sorry for yourself, get stuck in your head, etc. But, if you focus on others, suddenly your load doesn't feel so heavy. Love you girls!

I have been thinking about you today. I'm glad that God is providing you some comfort. The story about Joel is priceless! You'll have to remember and tell him when he's older and can appreciate it!

I'm not sure I ever thanked you enough for watching EJ for me that week. You have no idea how much of a help and strength giver you've been in my life. Comments are closed.
