...I went to a different church
...I had a different job
...I emailed different people
...I didn't know what a blog or facebook was
...I had a son in elementary school
...I was PTA president
...I didn't know people who have made huge impacts on my life
...I put too much trust in people and not God alone
...the person I voted for won the election
...I was skinnier
...I worried about what others thought all day long
...I delivered a precious baby boy that never took a breath here on earth.
As I look back over the last four years God has taken my life, turned it upside down, and shook it up.
I am grateful for that. I am stronger and hold on tighter to God more than ever now.
As I remember that day, I remember how my friends rallied around me. I remember how a women who didn't even know me held out her hand because she knew what I was walking through. I remember the nurses and my doctor giving me the time I needed while I held my baby.
He is now in Jesus' arms. One day I will get to hold him again.
Until then I will cherish every moment He gives me with Dylan and Emma.
Praying for you.

Wow has it really been four years?
I LOVED this post. It's amazing what God can do in an instant, but in 4 years - wow.
We miss you!

I don't know if you cried on Thursday, but if you did, I just cried with you. If not, I cried alone...or maybe just a little later than you did.
