I am a 30 something year old mom of five precious boys and two sweet girls. Five of our children are here with us and two are in the arms of Jesus. Our sweet baby girl Hope was diagnosed with Dystrophic Epdermolysis Bullosa and our youngest son came to us through adoption, our youngest daughter through foster care, and I've recently been diagnosed with malignant melanoma the Lord has shown us just how Faithful He is. We will continue to Journey and follow Him where ever He leads. We feel very blessed that God chose us to be the parents of each of our kids, and we look forward to what He has in store for us in foster care!
No imperfections here Kristy. I am glad you scratched the air brush idea. It really wasn't needed. You look beautiful and Happy looks so good on you, or I mean in you! My prayers continue for your peace and joy and for Happy to grow big and strong. I am still praying for healing as I know our God is controlling every beat of Happy's heart.
Kristy... you are so brave to have to your beautiful pregnant belly "out there" for all to see. I just LOVE the pictures that were taken of you and "Happy" - together. I also enjoyed the ones of your family, too. The boys' expressions were just too much and the captions you gave them were even better! LOL! You're in my thoughts & prayers and I have since shared your blog website with Suzie in the event that it would help her in some small way. She is being so strong and I know that she has got to be hurting so much still.
Here's a little poem that I cut out of the newspaper so many years ago that the clipping is very fragile. I hope you enjoy!
It's called: Never Give Up
Never give up, Never lose hope. Always have faith, It allows you to cope.
Trying times will pass, As they always do. Just have patience. Your dreams will come true.
So put on a smile, You'll live through your pain. Know it will pass, And strength you will gain.
Go ahead and mention my child, The one that died, you know. Don't worry about hurting me further. The depth of my pain doesn't show. Don't worry about making me cry. I'm already crying inside. Help me to heal by releasing The tears that I try to hide. I'm hurt when you just keep silent, Pretending she didn't exist. I'd rather you mention my child, Knowing that she has been missed. You asked me how I was doing. I say "pretty good" or "fine". But healing is something ongoing I feel it will take a lifetime. ~ Elizabeth Dent ~
