It is the beginning of Fall 2010.
I see Fall differently now that I'm a Wife and Mama. I relate Fall to the cozy memories of my childhood. Fall Festivals with Pilgrims and Indians...Carmel Apples, (well, apples in general.. Homemade Applesauce) A new long sleeve shirt from Mom, that she probably found a great deal on. :) Thanks Mom.. not just for the shirt, but all of the above. I wouldn't have this motherly instinct to nurture and provide lasting memories if it weren't for your example.
It's Tuesday, September 14th.. I'm sitting here at my parents house..my mom is making Applesauce..again. But funny thing is, she hasn't made it in years. But it feels like yesterday, a very familiar feeling. Comforting even.
This isn't the announcement I thought I'd be making, and I wasn't sure if I'd even announce it. But I thought my blog would be a special place to do it. I can look back and hopefully this will be comforting.
Yesterday, September 13th I would have been 11 weeks and 1 day pregnant..
We found out via ultra-sound that our sweet baby passed at 9 weeks. :(
Through great big, hot tears... Mommy & Daddy saw you.
We saw your sweet little head and body.
Daddy and Mommy and Big Sis were so very excited to meet you! We always will love you and we can't wait to meet you one day.
We are so thankful you're with Jesus.. That's Mommy's greatest source of comfort through this hard time, because she misses you.
Tears.
