28 května The curve ballMay 28
it amazes me how people come into our lives and somehow they too have had such a tragic loss. The compassion they extend is evident . The compassion they seek is equally evident. I talk to women throughout my day. I see the moms at our children's school. I sit next to them on field trips and we chat about our children. Somehow it comes up..."so how many children do you have?" There was a time when I couldn't not wait for someone to ask me that question. I had to validate to me, to my children that my baby , their sister was indeed alive.
But over time I have come to realize how truly special Grace is and forever will be.
I hold her memory so incredibly dear to my heart.
I choose who to share her with.
I want her life to matter to me and others.
I couldn't not imagine her not being ours.
Someone chastized me for talking about Grace after my so called 'required' 3 months of mourning. He felt that I should 'get over it'....I wanted to say how there was absolutely nothing to get over. She is my child. Not 'was" my child but IS my child. Now and Forever.
I love being Grace's mommy. I love being Mommy to my living children and also to Brady and Hannah.
My heart goes out to new parents. My heart just breaks for what you are going through. I hate when people say, Oh, it will get better'.
Hmmm, better then what?
All I know is what is going on now. All I know is that if I have faith, I pray with all my heart that I will be accepted into Heaven.
I know that Grace changed me. I know that I am not the same person I was BG( before grace). So many parents say that.
My living children leave my home with a prayer ...a verbal prayer that God watches over them. I write H.O.P on their school papers, agendas, cards, notes....I want them to know that coming and going, you will be prayed for.
Grace did that. Well, God and Grace. |
