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!
Here are just a couple of my favorites. We have many, this is just a taste :-) He was amazing! He did have reddish hair like Benjamin! We will post more later.
What beautiful pictures you have of your time with dear Asher.You are right. He is perfect!I am in awe of your strength. May you get some rest now to get through the difficult times ahead. I am so sorry for your loss of your precious little guys. May God comfort you & give you peace. Susan
What wonderful Strength you have! May you always find the peace the only our "God" can give at such a challenging time.You are doing a remarkable job as of now.
Beautiful and oh so perfect Kristy and Howard. Sweet pictures of him with his big brothers and Daddy. You have my heart at this time Kristy and you have been in my prayers non stop. I will be with you in spirit as you celebrate this angel next weekend. He is just beautiful in every way. He has left baby boy footprints on my heart with so many others. I pray your time with him was happy and full of joy. I am so sorry you had to let him go. May the Lord protect your hearts with His peace.
I love the pictures of your boys all loving on sweet Asher. So thankful that God gave you this precious gift of time to tell Asher of your love for him. What a blessing that he felt the amazing love of his family and then went straight into the unimaginable wonderful love of His Heavenly Father and got to meet his brother Issac. I have six little babies in heaven (through miscarriages) that I am sure were there to welcome your sweet boy. Oh what a wonderful day that will be when we are not only reunited with our precious babies but with our savior who has put an end to death and pain. Until then may God give you the grace to carry on one day at a time. Rachel in PA
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I pray that God will give you the strength and the peace that you need in the days and weeks to come. He was a beautiful baby and he was a lucky little guy tp have such a great family that will always love and cherish his him. I can't imagine what that moment must have been like when Isaac was able to greet Asher at the gates of Heaven and show him around.
Asher is beautiful...a truly perfect baby. :-) The two pics you posted of your men are both so beautiful. It's amazing, you can feel the love in the room through the pics. You all have not been off my mind this past week and weekend. I'm still praying for you.
I love the pictures of Asher. He has the sweetest little button nose. His cheeks are so cute that I just want to sqeeze them. And the red hair... well I've always been partial to red hair. Asher is gorgeous.
The pictures of Asher with 2 of his brothers is precious. I'm just so thankful you all had time to love on him and bond. I hope you made some VERY SPECIAL memories to help you get through this terrible pain...
What a beautiful little guy...I can't begin to know what words to offer in encouragement. I do know that God has promised restoration, peace and comfort. I am praying that your whole family will be encouraged and that God will sustain you in your time of grieving, that you will experience a peace that truly surpasses understanding.
Asher, aka Happy, is just amazing, perfect little boy! Praise God that your precious time with Happy was all you hoped it would be.
I know your heart is broken, but maybe it helps a tiny bit to know that your two little angels are TOGETHER with their Heavenly Fatheer!
I continue to pray for you and your family each day. May our Father wrap you in His blanket of comfort and peace.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us, and thank you for sharing HAPPY with us. My prayers will follow you along the difficult road you are on. Your faith and courage are incredible. You are an inspiration to me.
Absolutely precious pictures of Asher! Such love is seen on the faces of his big brothers. May the Lord grant you peace and comfort in the days and months to come. We are praying for you.
Hi, I found your blog through someone else, and I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry for your loss and pain, and I am (and will be) praying for your family. Asher is beautiful! May God continue to comfort you and bring you peace and Happy-ness even in this dark time.
What a beautiful baby. He is perfect, just like you said. We've been looking at the sonogram and feel that the Lord was holding him, even before he was born. He looks like he has angel wings. We are so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you and give you peace. The love of his family really shows in the pictures. We will continue to pray for you and your family. All our love, Aunt Penny, Uncle Bob and Kelsey

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 ~
