I hate that we have to feel this pain-but like you, I wouldn't ever trade that for not having my daughter. I hope you are feeling better today-and don't feel bad for crying! I had multiple breakdowns this weekend at work. You are in my prayers!

Your reality. And it doesn't change; you just have to figure out how to make it through.<br /><br />Hope you feel better (strep stinks as an adult!) soon!<br />xoxoxoLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828552745708177768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5729748489688189251.post-86013463258015272562010-07-17T10:27:07.437-04:002010-07-17T10:27:07.437-04:00It really is something when you the realization th...It really is something when you the realization that "this is your life" washes over you. It is true...this will be woven into the tapestry of your life...always part of your journey. But, the sorrow and joy will be woven together. I love the way Angie Smith calls it the sacred dance of grief and joy. They dance together throughout our lives. <br /><br />I am sorry for the pain bubbling up that day, and grateful that you were encouraged by others...and prayerful that you will feel better soon. <br /><br />Love to you...Kelly @ Sufficient Grace Ministrieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11182310611088290551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5729748489688189251.post-16183592172325556962010-07-17T02:17:17.530-04:002010-07-17T02:17:17.530-04:00Oh my dear, I am so sorry you had one of those wee...Oh my dear, I am so sorry you had one of those weeks. I hope you are feeling better. I have never had strep but I hear it's no fun.<br /><br />It doesn't seem fair that our kids at such a young age know about death. I wish that wasn't so. <br /><br />The last few weeks I have been a little out of it and I have been bad about blogging. Please know you are ALWAYS in my thoughts and prayers. This post really touched me because it is so true, especially when you said you welcome pain. I get it, I would never trade my life for a life without Sami in it. <br />Take care, ((HUGS))Lisettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06486760107232191431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5729748489688189251.post-76036086522657273992010-07-17T00:55:17.393-04:002010-07-17T00:55:17.393-04:00You are not alone even when it feels like it.

It's not fair at all but maybe our kiddos will be more sensitive to others as they grow up after going through life with the understanding of loss.<br /><br />Hope you are refreshed tomorrow!CynthiaShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759483767142416783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5729748489688189251.post-81759717415166269472010-07-16T23:04:50.583-04:002010-07-16T23:04:50.583-04:00(((HUGS))) Those are hard days!

Although, I am thankful that they remember and want to visit her.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151228414237434218noreply@blogger.com
