I need you to kno...Hey chica, Thanks for your post. I need you to know that I have been reading your post for quite some time. I've been in awe of you sometimes when I think about all you've gone through with Caden and I am witness to how your love of God permeates it all. I am relieved a bit to know that you too... have seasons where you are honest about how you feel, how much it hurts and where you are peeved. I believe our Jesus can handle it. I believe he yearns for us to tell Him... be honest and ask him to heal those deep parts of our lives where ONLY HE can carry us through. Praying for you and your sweet beautiful family of five.. :) That this Christmas. The gift of Jesus Christ and all that brings with it will cover your home and your spirit. God bless you friend, Peace... can't wait to see pics of Rigg this christmas. More of Josie on their way. :) <br />lv, jenGlimmerchick - Unpluggedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122925707006743091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-77532861939559756112010-11-24T16:07:22.126-05:002010-11-24T16:07:22.126-05:00I cry tears for you, too, because holidays must be...I cry tears for you, too, because holidays must be so very hard for you. My mom lost her second child, a daughter, at the age of seven months to a heart defect, and holidays are so hard for her. She still misses her terribly after 40 years. I am thinking of Caden this season, right along with you.Annnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-61166786552982054182010-11-23T21:52:21.178-05:002010-11-23T21:52:21.178-05:00Well, it just stinks period. It just stinks that ...Well, it just stinks period. It just stinks that you haven't been there and already know what two at home feels like. It just stinks that Caden can't be that big sister trying to be a little mommy to Rigg and Ryder. <br />But you are right - God is faithful. Our hope is thankfully not in ourselves and you say that so well.<br />You will do great with two boys at home - although it would have been nicer of Rigg to keep both of his naps at least until Ryder was 2 months old so you might have a chance of taking a daily shower.Extraordinary Ordinary Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01232777722945061624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-89144097406140988092010-11-23T17:46:28.323-05:002010-11-23T17:46:28.323-05:00do not be so hard on yourself, you have every righ...do not be so hard on yourself, you have every right to feel that way.<br />Our God understands our hurt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854822966178949982.post-32109586690924781232010-11-23T10:10:46.350-05:002010-11-23T10:10:46.350-05:00Thanks for making me a mascara running mess!
