I don't feel like celebrating or doing much of anything, but I have to keep going on, one foot in front of the other, one whispered, choking prayer after another. I had hoped to share happy news here, but instead I only have grief. This weekend I lost the baby I was carrying for 8 weeks. I have a Drs appt. today to see what else needs to be done. I am heartbroken...heartsick. And yet....I have to keep being thankful. I have 3 amazing, beautiful children that are in my arms, an amazing, wonderful supportive husband and friends that love me. I feel waves of such thankfulness that my cross is not much bigger and tragic and then waves of deep sorrow for all that was so wanted and hoped for. I am not asking why, that question never gets answered and really isn't the point...I am just asking to accept and to joy in the blessed life I still do have. I'd so appreciate prayers if you think of me...
