I hope you know that although we are not a part of your daily life, our prayers are with you every day.<br /><br />I see Rick and Brenda still grieving and cannot imagine that you would be able to process Caden's life in death in less than a year. <br /><br />While I kneel with for you in prayer, I stand with you in praise of the One Who is able. Able to turn bad into good. To work to perfection what is far from perfect. Who is able to do more than we could ask or imagine in every circumstance, even when I cannot see it.<br /><br />Praying for His peace to rest on you both (or all three of you!).Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14830324269477826545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-53319188612712482322009-06-10T12:37:43.040-04:002009-06-10T12:37:43.040-04:00Well said!

I really gain so much strength from you and your husband. I could say that I have never been through a valley as deep as you have, but I hope that I have the strength that you have if I ever do. Please know that you are in my daily prayers. <br />In His Love, <br />Lauren <br />www.lkdoylefamily.blogspot.comLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03872864081364806180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-90133522104688592482009-06-09T18:22:05.361-04:002009-06-09T18:22:05.361-04:00So... here I am again... crying. Loving how honest...So... here I am again... crying. Loving how honest you are in your walk. As I crank up the Jeremy Camp song during these lyrics, <br /><br />"I can’t wait until that day where the very one I’ve lived for always will wipe away the sorrow that I’ve faced. To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery this is why this is why I sing..." Wow.. <br /><br />and I just pray for you. You are an amazing testimony to God's love and to what it is like to walk through a deep valley. Your mother in law is right... everyone has deep valleys in their lives, but man o man... for those of us who have not experienced our deepest valleys... we are called to pray for and minister to our friends who are in the midst of it. And that is you my friend. I appreciate your honesty about your grief and your testimony of your faith. You don't just believe God. You believe in him and your awesome faith shows. Thank you for that Cari. Thanks for this post.

We have painted the nursery a milk chocolate color. That's as far as I've gotten :) We are accenting it with pink and lavender and white. It will eventually be Toby's room where we will then accent with his favorite color at the time! :) Durango (SW corner of Colorado) is beautiful. If you and the Captain are ever in need of a cowboy/rafting/mountain hiking or ski vacation and come to Durango... that would be awesome! Please let me know. I think I'll comment on what you wrote today in another post. This one is already pretty long.Glimmerchick - Unpluggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122925707006743091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-33597086800746850292009-06-09T17:17:12.211-04:002009-06-09T17:17:12.211-04:00I am praising God today.

Even Jesus being who He is, cried over the death of Lazarus. He feels our pain and heals it.<br /><br />Side note Hayley Elizabeth is nearly a 2 months old.

I love the honesty you are able to portray through your blog.<br /><br />By the world's standards, I haven't ever experienced any sort of traumatic grief in MY life. But I know I have grieved more over Caden's death and for you and Andy than I think I've ever grieved over anything before. Even though I can't really "relate" on the same level, I definitely grieve and cry and experience pain over your loss...still.<br /><br />I love you, Cari.<br /><br /><br />nerrkHeidi Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853114107907752702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-10570436447584341192009-06-09T13:34:33.222-04:002009-06-09T13:34:33.222-04:00Please don't ever feel that you may have share...Please don't ever feel that you may have shared too much, or something too often with all of us. I enjoy reading your blog, because you DO share what you're going through. Your incredible faith in Jesus is wonderful to read about, and sharing what you feel (even if it would feel repetitive to you), makes me even more appreciative of your blog. You are a wonderful example of a Christian woman, and I thank you for being so transparent. :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06247210315971096312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-11778354883444862172009-06-09T13:10:30.595-04:002009-06-09T13:10:30.595-04:00I have been reading your blog for a while, but hav...I have been reading your blog for a while, but have never felt compelled to comment until today. Dear Sister in Christ, please do not hesitate to share your honest emotions through this blog. It is that honesty and transparency that drew me to you. Your journey is no more or less that someone else's - but you are ministering to countless people by being transparent. Be encouraged, beloved of God. Your words, whether joyous or heart-wrenching, are your words, and your journey. It is a priviledge to share some part of that, however small.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17043585148664431337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-51347739901791785132009-06-09T12:41:11.284-04:002009-06-09T12:41:11.284-04:00I feel so badly for you and your husband.

My stepmother has buried both of her sons. Both were 41. If I thought losing the first one, 5 years ago on Mother's Day, was bad- losing the 2nd son last September was awful! I thought she was literally going to die from grief. She is doing better now, thank God. She found out last month that her oldest granddaughter is going to have a baby. I wrote more about it in my Mother's Day post on my blog.<br />Your Caden is beautiful! I check your blog every day-- can't wait to see Rigg. I believe the delay with your induction is part of God's timing, even though I KNOW for you--- the waiting is miserable. God bless.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00571947128036699544noreply@blogger.com
