I also wanted to add something else about today, the date I am writing these blogs, although in the other entry, when I said "today" it was referring to the other little girl's birthday which is June 27.
June 28 or 6/28 is very significant to me. Kathlyn was born at 6:28 and I see that number almost every day of my life whether it's on the clock (either morning or evening, sometimes I catch both in the same day!) I see it on signs, addresses, everywhere.
I got my current car on 6/28/10, the same day I found out I was pregnant with Glory. I wanted to be pregant again before the 1 year mark, and I made it. And she is Glorious.
So today, as I make an effort to pick writing back up, it's 6/28. All day.
my journey to conceiving, carrying, birthing, exploring adoption, and raising my subsequent children after losing my firstborn after a full term pregnancy, and my second pregnancy after 7 weeks. this is loss, heartbreak, faith, hope, my children, my cherries on top, my joy.
Our Blessings
About Me
- Beth
- I had my dream job, my dream husband, a loving family, awesome church, strong faith.. my children would be the cherries on top.. the recipe for a perfect life. Just when I felt safe, it all came crashing down with the death of my first daughter in 2009, and a miscarriage 8 months later. 18 months to the day of Kathlyn's funeral, our Glory was born. We were reminded that Joy can still be found in life. I love more than I've ever loved, I miss more than I've ever missed.
dare to hope
