Today is September 3rd.
This is the day that my sister Angie would have been due with the baby that she lost back in March.
Although it hasn't been far from our minds in the last months. Today we are strongly reminded of what 'would have been'. And we take time to remember a little life so swiftly gone. We're also thankful for God's gift of Salvation which we've accepted. And because he saved us from ours sins we know we'll be in heaven some day to meet and hold this little one that made it there before we did.
(Angie at 15 weeks - last March)
I wanted to do something for Angie today but just like the day she called to tell me her unborn baby was no longer living, the best thing I could think of was to go and be there with her.
So Cooper and I are making a quick trip to Wichita today. When I have no words of comfort...
a hug will say it all. Love you, Sis.
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." -Matthew 5:4
I'm glad you are close enough to be with her today.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you can be with Angie today. Give her a hug for me.
ReplyDeleteHug her for me too. She is blessed to have you.
ReplyDeleteFor those who know the pain of miscarriage, this is a very meaningful effort. Angie will never forget your valuing this baby's short life and acknowledging the pain that a Mommy feels after letting go of one she was never able to hold.
