Today:
schoolwork done with the boys,
several household projects completed....
but I would have prefered....
~reaching greedy arms for my baby boy
~crying tears of joy at his breathing
~inhaling the wonderful scent of life, newest life
~hearing his funny croaking cry
~posing for the best photo in the world...baby (minutes old) and mommy (delirious)
~watching Daddy meet his boy for the first time
~introducing my boy to his big brothers
~calling Grandma's and Grandpa's with happy news
I'm still whispering "Happy Birthday, Benjamin!"

A little of this, a little of that, and what makes up my daily thoughts and activities....
I am a woman who desires to love GOD above all, to serve and delight my husband, to cherish and train up my four boys, while adjusting (through God's grace) to life without our children, Ellie Rene and Benjamin Curt, who were taken to heaven in February 2008 and April 2010. We are now celebrating James, our sweet 7, born in March 2011. Praise God with us!

Love you! Sorry-praying for you today!
Katie. Love you. Benjamin: Happy Birthday, enjoy the loving arms of Jesus!
Oh Benjamin, you are sorely missed here on this earth and in your mommy's arms. But I know your big sister is singing with you today.
Katie, dear... my heart is aching for you. Just burning with anguish.
Praying & sending my love.
Thank you for sharing. I know it's a sober day. I also lost a baby this year and the birthday would have been Sept. 6th. I'm dreading that day a little. Praying for you today as you grieve in a new way.
Love you Katie, praying for you today. I love this quote taken from Mary Beth Chapman's new book "If we knew what God knew about death, we would raise our listless hands and clap"
Grace and peace to you tonight, dear Katie.
amen. come Lord Jesus.
Katie, I'm sorry.
Benjamin is sorely missed here- it does ache so much.
And I can imagine the joy and love he's feeling now. I hope that is some comfort to your weary heart.
love,
